FormscanBy Tom Weekes - The evidence so far this season suggests Gordon Elliott's horses are needing a run and despite this, APPLE'S JADE can still make a winning reappearance given her high level of ability and receiving a 7lbs mares' allowance. A seven-time Grade 1 winner, she won this race on her reappearance last year and while she was beaten in top level races at Cheltenham and Punchestown on her most recent starts, there was no disgrace in those runs and her Punchestown defeat also came just before her yard was hit by a virus.Identity Thief, a dual Grade 1 winner, lost his way quite badly in 2017 before recapturing his old sparkle last spring. His recent form has been over three miles but he did finish fourth in the Champion Hurdle in March and should be ok with today's trip, and he has sound claims today. The selection's stablemate Dortmund Park was a smart performer last term and while his mid-season form was underwhelming, he did win a Grade 1 at Punchestown at this trip in April. He has 14lbs to find with APPLE'S JADE on adjusted ratings and while he too lacks a recent outing, can still get involved today. Jezki is still fairly capable at this level but needs to show far more than his latest two starts in April while Arctic Fire nowadays will be more at home at this trip than at Tipperary last month but might still find a few too strong today. Connections of Coney Island will merely be hoping to get the wheels back on the wagon having disappointed badly on his latest two chase starts.%0A
