In depth
Formwatch
Mini Sensation (IRE) Useful but high in the weights over hurdles; not built for chasing but has the class to win this at least.
Quixall Crossett What can we say? get round safely old chap!
Roman Outlaw Very one paced last term and will need the outing anyway.
Rainbow Times (IRE) Hunter chase winner at Aintree last season so fences will not be a problem.
Bramble Fair (IRE) Improved over hurdles thanks to blinkers; sure to have been well schooled and capable of causing a surprise.
Crimson Brocade Has the same chance as Quixall Crossett!
