In depth

Formwatch

Bonus Bridge (IRE) Did not have to be at his best to land a weak event at Hereford last month; should have no problems here despite his penalty.

Pauntley Gofa Pulled up behind the likely favourite Bonus Bridge last time out and although put in some decent runs last season may not be good enough here.

Albahi (IRE) Two fair bumper efforts to his name earlier in the year; should be ready for this race and could give the favourite most to do.

Arctic Times (IRE) Not disgraced in a couple of bumpers last season before running a fair race at Aintree a couple of weeks ago; improvement needed but improvement expected.

Phillijo Two poor runs to date; no real chance.

Robella The most experienced in the field but by no means the best; handles soft but need to find a lot to figure here.

Silver Gift Has shown the occasional bit of promise but is not in the best form at the moment and others preferred.
