Formwatch
Euro Venture His best form is on fast ground, he is a half brother to Venture Capatilist and he may be better over six furlongs.
Gay Breeze Goes on any ground but he was very disappointing at Southwell last time out so is readily passed over.
Dahlidya Has been ultra consistent of late is a course and distance winner and he is a leading player here.
Law Breaker (IRE) Was beaten a neck by Ready To Rock at Wolverhampton last time but this looks tougher.
Rude Awakening Likes to make the running but he has been very in and out of late and is readily passed over.
Sergeant Slipper Is a course and distance winner in a lower grade, would have a chance on his very best form; but others preferred.
Nickles Was beaten in a seller last time out and this is a more competitive.
Kosevo (IRE) His best form is over further and he is readily passed over.
Dazzling Quintet Was in front of Rude Awakening last time and he should confirm the placings; leading chance.
Superapparos Ran well last time when second behind Southern Dominion has a very low weight; definite place claims.
Bratby (IRE) Was well beaten in a seller last time and is easily passed over.
