In depth

Formwatch

Kildorragh (IRE) Beat Foxhunters winner Gunner Wellburn last time and looks to have a leading chance if running to that form; sure to go close.

Baron Allfours Complete no hoper.

Blyth Brook Impossible to fancy on all known form.

Charlieadams (IRE) Poor maiden hunter chaser - no chance.

Fiscal Policy Veteran who should get around - but in his own time!

Garryspillane (IRE) Not disgraced on British debut at Bangor but needs to improve considerably.

Gildrom Decent sort who won impressively at Huntingdon latest and is on the upgrade; good chance today.

Here Comes Henry Scored at Stratford last time and is open to further improvement; fair each-way prospects.

Makin' Doo (IRE) Hasn't been in great for most starts this term and is unlikely to figure in the finish today.

Native Cove (IRE) poor form in this grade and has plenty to find to get into the argument.

Quarterstaff Prefers top of the ground and balance of form doesn't entitle him to too much chance today.

Quick Response (IRE) Won well at Folkestone before having no luck in running last time; capable of getting into the thick of it and likely to go close.

Secret Streams (IRE) Put up a good performance at Sandown last time out, form that entitles him to plenty of respect. Likely to be on the upgrade and could take the beating.

Rainbow Times (IRE) Best on decent ground and will surely struggle in the mud today.

Galway (IRE) Ex-Irish won at Musselburgh in February but has disappointed since and a place would appear to be the most he can hope for.

Greenwich Modest handicap hurdler who has made little impression since running in this grade and is hard to fancy.
