Formwatch

Dark Stranger (FR) Course and distance winner who is a tough nut to crack on his day but he is yet to win off a mark this high. However, it is always dangerous to underestimate a Pipe-trained horse and the market may be the best guide to how he will go after a summer break.

Extra Jack (FR) Won on his British debut last year but was let down by his jumping at the start of the winter campaign. However, he has gone well fresh in the past and if Dark Stranger shows any signs of weakness, he is the one who looks to have the best chance of capitalising.

Wise King On a long losing run and now he is approaching the veteran stage he may find things a little tough.

Master Pilgrim A little to prove over fences in this company but is open to improvement and may surprise a few if fully wound up after a long lay off.

Murray's Million Should have benefited from his reappearance run at Bangor recently and is capable of giving a good account of himself on the best of his form. However, any rain would enhance his chance.

Dulas Bay Will need to keep his fencing together to figure in this company .
