Runner by runner
Reteti Marc Goldstein · Sheena West
Reteti arrives in cracking form, placed in all five recent runs with a win two starts back and a third last time out, and he's fresh enough after 16 days. He has run over today's trip and going, but 168 lb is a hefty burden and the main risk.
Inedit d'Amour Theo Gillard · Donald McCain
Our top-rated runner, Inedit d'Amour won four starts back and has run over today's trip and going before, while our 123 figure sits well clear of his official 105. A 183-day absence and a 168 lb burden are the reservations, but the ability looks to be there.
Ask A Sainte Sean Bowen · Olly Murphy
A fourth last time out, 28 days ago, keeps Ask A Sainte firmly in the picture, and he has a winner four starts back and a second three starts back, plus experience over today's trip and going. The main risk is a pulled up two starts back and top weight of 168 lb.
Bertie B Richie McLernon · Clive Boultbee-Brooks
Bertie B is one of the leading dangers, with our rating of 114 ranking him second of ten and an official mark of 104 giving him a chance at the weights, and he has run over today's trip and going before. The risk is a patchy record: he is winless in his last five, with two pulled-up efforts, and returns after 109 days off.
Holy Legend James Best · Alexandra Dunn
Holy Legend arrives in cracking nick, having won last time out and two starts back, but he carries 165 lb off an official mark of 102 and our figures rank him only eighth of ten. He has run over today's trip and going, yet the weight is a hard sell.
Ghasham Jonathan England · Sam England
Ghasham arrives in solid form, a second last time out and a third two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before, though he's won just once in his last six and hasn't been seen for 34 days. Carrying 165 lb off 102, he's ranked fifth of ten by our rating of 106.
Playful Fox Harry Skelton · Dan Skelton
Playful Fox has won twice in his last six, a winner two starts back and again four starts back, but he was only fifth last time out 26 days ago. He has run over today's trip and going, though 158 lb is a hefty burden and our rating ranks him sixth of ten.
Dexter Toby Wynne · Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero
Dexter has finished third in each of his last two outings, and he has run over today's trip and going, but he is yet to win in his last five starts. Back after 25 days and carrying 154 lb off an official mark of 91, he looks a solid sort without a clear edge, with our rating of 99 placing him seventh of ten.
Prospect House William Maggs(3) · Peter Niven
Prospect House has finished third in his last two starts and won four starts back, but a 78-day absence and 152 lb on his back make him hard to fancy, and our rating ranks him ninth of ten. He has run over today's trip and on this going, which is the best point in his favour.
Tropical Talent Jack Tudor · Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero
Tropical Talent has been runner-up in three of his last four starts, including last time out, yet he remains without a win in that spell, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 143 lb off 80 and ranked tenth of ten on our figures, he is hard to fancy.
