In depth
Formwatch
Teller of Tales winner over this trip at Huntingdon on similar ground, penalty to carry here
City Express would need to improve leaps and bounds to have any chance
Crozanni behind when pulled up in a bumper, hurdles debut here, best watched
Hot Plunge winner of a bumper at Worcester, respectful form under a penalty since, hurdles debut, leading chance
Kauroa Mail (NZ) not disgraced last time, would need to improve a bit to win this but, has an each way chance
Only You having first run for respected yard, yet to race on ground this fast, improvement likely
Shafqan behind Kauroa Mail last time, no reason why he should turn the tables
Take The Stand (IRE) showed ability behind subsequent winner Spectrometer at Stratford, should be suited by trip
