In depth
Formwatch
Big Wheel has not looked like one to rely on too heavily but has a good opportunity to return to form in this weak race. He hails from the top trainer who also sent out the winner of last year's race. Doodle Bug looked to have a good chance of winning last time at Doncaster before unseating her rider and must be feared today. The eventual winner of that race was Double Bid but he seems to have lost his form and may be best watched.
