In depth
Formwatch
Santiburi Lad (IRE) Not without a chance if consenting to put his best foot forward, but that cannot be guaranteed; others preferred..
Redoubtable (USA) Wins in his turn but it is a little late in the day for him to score his first victory over a mile.
Bound To Please Should go close judged on the best of his form and is one to consider.
Burning Truth (USA) Another who is not without a chance if he is on song but, he has never really shone on this surface and others look to have stronger claims.
Calling The Shots Course and distance winner, but he is becoming a touch inconsistent and is best watched.
Massey A few questions to answer at this trip but fared well enough on his reappearance at Wolverhampton recently to warrant consideration in this company.
Teofilio (IRE) A little to prove after a moderate spell over hurdles recently and is one to be wary of for the time being.
Tightrope Looks to have frame claims at best here.
Celtic Thatcher Likes to race with the pace and is one of the more likely winners if translating his form to this surface.
Taranaki Course and distance winner on only his third ever outing and regained the winning thread last time at Chepstow, one to consider.
Kumakawa Out of form at present and best watched.
Middleton Grey Looks to have little to find on balance.
Amber Rose (IRE) Best watched on her All Weather debut.
Buddeliea Returned to form of late and is another to consider.
Indian Silk (IRE) Could go well if on song but has lost his way a little recently and cannot be backed for win only purposes with solid confidence.
Sea Ya Maite Goes well here and put in a fair effort last time at Wolverhampton after a short break, one for the list.
