Runner by runner
Two Tribes Saffie Osborne · Richard Spencer
Yet to score in his last six starts, Two Tribes nonetheless shaped with promise when second three starts back, and returning after 28 days he has experience of both today's trip and going; carrying 138 lb from stall seven, his rating of 106 makes him a serious contender here.
Addison Grey Callum Shepherd · Clive Cox
Addison Grey comes here on the back of a win last time out, has experience of both today's trip and conditions, and his rating of 101 underlines his quality; the chief worry is that ninth two starts back hints at inconsistency.
Ghost Mode David Probert · Andrew Balding
Ghost Mode returns just seven days after winning two starts back, and he has experience of both today's trip and conditions, with 128 lb from stall four his main burden to overcome.
Mubasimah Jason Watson · Andrew Balding
Mubasimah is the top-rated runner in this field and has run over today's trip and going before, with 16 days since her last outing keeping her fresh; the risk is a winless run of five starts that raises a question over her ability to convert.
The Fingal Raven William Carver · Jamie Osborne
Yet to score in his last six starts, The Fingal Raven does at least bring distance and going experience to the table, and third two starts back shows ability on a good day; however, ninth last time out after just seven days' rest gives pause, and he faces stiffer company ranked fifth of eight.
Silver Ghost Charles Bishop · Emma Lavelle
Winless in her last five starts, Silver Ghost does bring distance and going experience to the table, plus our rating of 95 suggests some untapped ability — though back-to-back unplaced efforts heading in and a mid-field ranking among today's eight leave her with plenty to prove.
Thunder Call Cieren Fallon · William Haggas
Thunder Call arrives on the back of a second last time out and two wins in his last five starts, and has run over today's trip and going before, but ranked seventh of eight on our figures he faces a stiff ask against this field.
Glenfinnan Edward Greatrex · Michael Dods
Ranked bottom of the field on our figures, Glenfinnan is hard to fancy at these weights, though he does bring winning form — a victory last time out and a second three starts back — and has experience of today's trip and going.
