In depth

Formwatch

Tickle Only small but did very well last season winning twice; should be straighter for seasonal bow a fortnight ago and likely to go close if back to her old form.

Kumakawa Badly out of sorts of late and would need to improve considerably to get into the action today.

Astral Prince Stable have been going well lately and he looks to be coming to hand judged on his latest effort at Kempton; nicely handicapped.

Zozarharry (IRE) Won his maiden here and ran well last time out in better company at Newmarket; likely to put up a bold bid.

Yorker (USA) Didn't get home over a mile last time but had previously done well over C&D; has risen in the weights but not without a chance still.

Better Off Did well here over the winter but has been found out since and looks up against it.

Indian Silk (IRE) Progressive filly who probably didn't see out the mile at Sandown in better company last time; has a leading chance here judged on her previous solid efforts.

Quantum Lady Still hard to say if she's trained on from last term and needs to find some old form if she's to play a leading role here.

Eddys Lad Clearly well thought of by connections and would be a handicap snip if reproducing his second place to Orientor last term; might be worth taking a chance that he's back to his best after his seasonal bow last month.

Cookie Crumble Poor effort last time and hard to enthuse over on balance of form shown so far.

Affarati Has disappointed over a variety of distances in recent outings and looks set to struggle again.
