In depth
Formwatch
Skycab (IRE) Once useful but probably on the downgrade now and might prefer it softer nowadays.
Glamanglitz Looks weighted to the hilt at present and not getting any younger.
Castletown Count Would want it a lot softer than this.
Richie's Delight (IRE) Coming down the handicap; seems to handle any ground; each-way claims.
Forest Dante (IRE) Has beaten Castletown Count in the past but different conditions today
Grass Island (IRE) Yet to show anything to get excited about this term.
Harik Capable in this grade on his day and shouldn't be too far away.
Saskia's Hero Has become something of a standing dish here; has lively chance here.
Stanmore (IRE) Won a Hunter Chase earlier this year; should have no problems jumping these but best form was quite some time ago.
Peacemaker (IRE) Has been pretty consistent before one blob on his card; should be thereabouts again.
Apple John Very difficult to fancy this ex-Hunter Chaser.
