In depth
Formwatch
Alphacall Won impressively at Uttoxeter in August over 2m on hurdling debut; would be the one to beat today.
Celtic Rover He makes his hurdling debut today; flat form is extremely moderate and cannot be recommended.
Little Task Very uninspiring flat form; makes hurdling debut today.
Needwood Brave Makes hurdles debut today. Flat form is unimpressive.
Nettles Ran well last August to finish second in a 7f seller; more recent form is uninspiring.
Only When Provoked (IRE) Has had more experience than others here with three starts over hurdles. Finished 32l behind Bula Rose on last start and could ber in with place chances today.
Our Indulgence (IRE) From an in form yard, but flat form suggests that he is unlikely to make much impression on his hurdling debut today.
Red Mail (USA) Was second in a Yarmouth Claimer back in May, but form since then has been poor; easy to oppose.
Reims (IRE) Makes hurdling debut today; has had four runs on the flat since May but has not shown signs of improvement.
Roaming Ronan (IRE) Finished fourth on hurdling debut at Bangor, made a lot of mistakes: will need to sharpen up jumping and improve that performance to win today.
Route Barree (FR) Some respectable flat form, was just beaten in a maiden at Kempton in July over 12f, and more recently second to Motto; one to consider today.
Silver Chevalier (IRE) Finishing last or near last in most of his flat starts; makes hurdling debut today but hard to fancy.
Holbeck (IRE) Beaten decisevely on all five starts on the flat; makes little appeal.
Lunevision (FR) Has some placed form as a 2yo, but nothing of note since; makes hurdling debut today.
Our Emily (IRE) Has had two runs on the flat as a 3yo; difficult to get excited about.
Princesse Grec (FR) Best watched on racing debut in Britain.
