In depth

Formwatch

Achilles Sky Trip into the unknown; ran all right last time and has won early in the season before; place possibilities.

Battle Warning Distance winner on the AW but now looks in the handicapper's grip.

Amezola Excellent chance on best of form but disappointed last season; will go on the ground.

Marjeune Ran badly last time but looks well handicapped on best of form and will be suited to today's conditions.

Samarardo Has won over further and ground will suit; sometimes takes a while to come to hand.

Royal Measure Should be fit from hurdling exploits and put in excellent effort last time; up 6lb since then but capable of running well.

Totem Dancer Won this event off a higher mark last year but he had had the benefit of a run then; still capable of running well and is one for the shortlist.

Alcayde Will be fitter for recent run and has dropped to handy mark; could run a big race.

Sconced (USA) Consistent sort who has the ability to win a race like this; suited by this trip and track.

Able Native (IRE) Has been hurdling but Flat form towards the back end of last season was poor; others preferred.

Protocol (IRE) Is difficult to catch right but cannot be lightly dismissed; today's conditions will suit and could run a big race.

Jimgareen (IRE) Still a maiden and not really up to the task today.

Colline de Feu Has frustrated since winning at Southwell in November; has a lot to prove.

Miss All Alone Half-decent winning hurdler but is still a maiden on the Flat and is best left alone here.

Aldwych Arrow (IRE) Ran well last time and is in with an outsider's chance on balance of best form; one to consider.

Ireland's Eye (IRE) Not totally out of it but is on a long losing streak; has won on soft before.

Danka May struggle from out of the handicap.

Castrato Big step up in trip and will find it hard out there.
