In depth

Formwatch

Royal Partnership (IRE) has won on the Flat and could be worth a chance on this lowly mark now that the ground is drying out. Jayas is an obvious danger but ran inexplicably badly last time and will not be much value in this weak race. Iro Origny comes from a stable with an exceptional strike rate at this track and has good each way claims.
