In depth

Formwatch

Joe Buzz (IRE) Front-runner who made a winning reappearance at Hexham 12 days ago; may find Tara-Brogan too classy.

Tara-Brogan Would eat these for breakfast if the race was run over hurdles; bolted up at Southwell the other week and should follow up.

Gerej (POL) Polish bred horse who has, perhaps interestingly, travelled a long way from base in Cambridgeshire.

Harleidalus (IRE) Winning pointer for Lucy Normile who appears to have a lot to do at this level.

Lakeland Pride (IRE) Totally exposed over hurdles and becoming increasingly hard to trust over the larger obstacles.

Look Sharpe Maiden pointer who has little chance in this company.

Realfoodattheffrwd Lightly raced from a decent yard; chasing debut today; could benefit if the big two were to fail.
