In depth

Formwatch

At The Double By Sure Blade out of an Ardross mare; hard to fully assess but the bloodlines warrant a second look

Bak On Board Stamina is probably going to be more his forte; little show in two bumper efforts so far

Cinnamon Line Dam had ability but stable is noted more for chasers

Dead-Eyed Dick (IRE) By a stallion who has had his successes this year; stable usually buys with an eye to the future and the market might prove the best guide

Fine And Dandy (IRE) Bred to be a chaser and many of Trevor Hemmings' horses are bought with that in mind; from Henrietta Knight's yard so cannot be discounted

Glanamana (IRE) Third on only run, at Kempton 54 days ago; should benefit from that and run well

Hanover Square Finished a long way behind El Viejo at Sandown on only run so far; showed promise there and is sure to improve for the experience but he does have ground to make up on El Viejo; being by Le Moss out of a Deep Run mare, you'd expect him to improve for time and distance

Johnlegood Finished seven lengths in front of Nile Princess on their Kempton run on Feb 24; more needed here but he should improve with that run behind him

Misty Ridge (IRE) Hasn't run since unpromising bumper effort in Dec 1999

Steve The Fish (IRE) Trainer and owner have had some good times over the years although the last couple of years have been fairly quiet; may well need this

Temple Dog (IRE) By Un Desperado out of a King's Lake mare so warrants a second look; not a forlorn possibility

Flora Poste Venetia Williams always warrants respect in races like this; watch for any market moves

Leith Hill Star Fourth in a Folkestone bumper on debut; more likely to be required here

Queens House Beaten in points and can't be seriously considered here

El Viejo (IRE) Likely to go off favourite based on his debut third in a decent bumper at Sandown on March 10; related to a couple of chasing winners so shouldn't lack for stamina

General Well beaten at Fontwell on debut; certainly some evidence of ability on her dam's side but she would need to step up a lot on her debut run

Shake Eddie Shake (IRE) Not atall badly bred and cannot be passed over without some thought

Nile Princess Improved from her debut run but has seven lengths to find with Johnlegood on that effort; her dam is a winning pointer; she should continue to progress
