In depth

Formwatch

Right Wing (IRE) Trip, ground and track no problem; often runs well here; rates the danger to Albarahin

Albarahin (USA) Kept on improving last year and won three times at Listed level; beat Right Wing one-and-a-half lengths at Goodwood last season (1m1f192yds,soft) when giving that horse 2lbs; that gives him the nod although the relative fitness levels of the two need to be taken on trust

Nicobar On a line through Warningford on last year's form, he has 3 lengths to find on Albarahin; usually goes well at Epsom; has a bit to find with the favourite

Desert Knight Created a good impression when winning at Warwick last season but then disappointed next time and hasn't been seen since; would need to step up on known form.

Wahj (IRE) Decent handicapper who wil be fit from the all-weather but would lack the class of some of these.
