In depth

Formwatch

Artic Jack (FR) He has spoilt his chances in the past by travelling too fast in the early stages, but looked the type to defy a penalty after scoring a convincing win at Haydock in January. He has course experience and is an interesting contender over fences. One to consider.

Balmoral Spring (IRE) Best watched after almost two and a half years off the track.

Biliverdin (IRE) Runs very well fresh and sets the standard here if Artic Jack does not take to the larger obstacles.

Father McCarten (IRE) Very lightly raced eight-year-old who has a few questions to answer before being supported with confidence.

Mister Bigtime (IRE) Found a few too good over timber and does not have best profile on offer here.

Northern Fleet Acts on any track but is fully exposed as moderate and is best watched.
