In depth
Formwatch
Face The Class (IRE) Not as good as she once was and faces a stiff task at the weights; trainer and jockey combination makes her impossible to ignore.
Coral Reef (IRE) Has a long absence to overcome; chances if fit enough.
Brown Toast Pulled up both starts this term; difficult to fancy.
Castrato Hurdles debut; plating class on the flat.
Final Lap Little encouragement from recent hurdles debut.
Lautrec Only moderate form so far.
Very Cherry (IRE) Looks stable second string on jockey bookings.
Colonial Rule (USA) Useful on the flat with John Gosden; finally opened hurdling account at Catterick last month and should be thereabouts again.
Double Bid Appreciated drop to this grade when winning at Doncaster last time; reproduction of form shown there may suffice.
Head Lady Only moderate form so far.
Irish Cream (IRE) Difficult to fancy on form, but the booking of Mick Fitzgerald catches the eye.
Red Raki Needs to improve on recent efforts to take a hand in the finish.
Tsunami Tends to find at least one too good; has place claims.
Knight of Silver Only moderate form shown to-date.
Plantageant Pulled up on only start over hurdles; difficult to make a case for.
Tormentoso Poor plater.
Swiss Alps (IRE) Encouraging hurdling debut, but failed to progress from that at Doncaster last time.
