In depth

Formwatch

China Castle Has won both starts this month, a Class C handicap at Lingfield and a claimer at Wolverhampton; equally adept on this track, suited by trip and looks very hard to beat.

Rambo Waltzer Best form has been over shorter, including when winning two 9f claimers at Wolverhampton in January; well beaten last time out and hard to fancy against China Castle in receipt of just 2lb.

Bersaglio Has shown glimpses of form in modest Flat company on turf, but absent since being pulled up in Perth hurdle in May.

Lou's Wish Best recent form has been when third to Fort Sumter over 1m 3f here last month, but little below that form on last two efforts.

Piped Aboard (IRE) Best form on Flat has been shown over shorter trips; close seventh to Caversfield at this venue last week in 1m claimer; not a particularly consistent performer.
