In depth

Formwatch

Among Equals Hurdler who has decent Flat form; returning from long absence and could struggle at this level (only won maiden on Flat).

Mana d'Argent (IRE) Has been off the boil of late which is worrying; chance if returning to old form but not to be relied upon.

Scorned (GER) Lightly-raced and open to improvement but bare form does not seem good enough to take this contest.

Border Comet Has not proved he stays 12f let alone this trip; decent form besides that and trainer of course is respected and in good form.

Prairie Falcon (IRE) Proven stayer in the field and holds every chance because of that fact; fast ground will suit and could be the one to beat.

Elmutabaki Out of form of late and although stays this trip well may struggle against more in-form contenders.

Noble Pasao (IRE) Interesting outsider from a stable bang in form; needs strong handling and will go close if stepping up well.

Mumbling (IRE) Has ability but may find one of these too good on ground that may be too quick; trainer could be in better form.
