In depth
Formwatch
Mawingo (IRE) Interesting runner from stable who has only rare AW runners; has been called ungenuine but ran well last time and must have a chance today.
Mice Ideas (IRE) Can seem a little one paced but is fairly consistent and should be winning more races like this.
Kildare Chiller (IRE) Ex-Irish; has been hurdling and shown some aptitude for the game; limited form on the Flat and can be overlooked today.
Khuchn (IRE) Back from a long absence and will probably need this run today.
Pies Ar Us Last on reappearance two weeks ago; no appeal.
Marmaduke (IRE) Plating hurdler; should not be good enough today especially after a long lay-off.
Green Magical (IRE) As with all of this trainer's horses the market is generally the best guide to any runner's chances.
Stafford King (IRE) Might have benefited from better riding tactics last time; remains a disappointing sort at the end of the day; place possibilities.
Italian Counsel (IRE) Very poor maiden.
Rambo Nine Ran best race last time; still basically a poor plater.
Darwell's Folly (USA) Thought of as potentially useful at one stage in his career but has lost his way quite badly and can not be relied upon.
Palais (IRE) Runs plenty more bad races than good ones; best ignored.
Cheerful Groom (IRE) Hard to see him making a show from so far out of the handicap.
