3:15 Bath: Loud Hire Staging Hire Bath Summer Stayers' Series Final Handicap Stakes (Series Final - Qualified Horses Only) (GBBPlus Race)

Taritino Taylor Fisher · Joe Tickle

Taritino shaped with promise when winning two of his last six starts, and a rating of 81 has him ranked top of this field; with experience over today's trip and going, he arrives fit on just 15 days' rest. The concern is that sixth last time out leaves him needing to bounce back sharply.

Belle Of Kt Millie Wonnacott(5) · J S Moore

Belle Of Kt arrives on the back of a third last time out, though her recent record boasts four wins in her last six starts, including back-to-back victories before that. She has run over today's distance and going, but a weight of 133 lb and our rating sitting below her official mark may count against her here.

Percy Jones Paddy Bradley · Mark Loughnane

Percy Jones shaped well when second last time out and has run over today's distance and going before, with a rating of 74 giving him strong claims; the risk is that he has been winless in his last six starts and must convert his placed effort into something more decisive.

Boilermaker Luke Morris · Harry Charlton

Boilermaker arrives in fine fettle after back-to-back wins, has run over today's trip and going, and his 129 lb burden is the one factor that could temper his momentum.

Lusaka Mason Paetel(3) · John & Rhys Flint

Lusaka arrives here in solid recent nick, with a second last time out and third two starts back, though he remains winless in his last six starts and his ranking of sixth in the field suggests he faces stiffer competition on the way to reversing that trend.

Fair Dinkum Callum Hutchinson · Jeremy Scott

Yet to win in his last six starts, Fair Dinkum does offer some encouragement — third two starts back and second four starts back show he can get competitive, and he has run over today's trip and going before; 126 lb and a mid-field ranking give him plenty to overcome, though.

Two Plus Two Darragh Keenan · Ed de Giles

Two Plus Two has experience over today's trip and going, and his second last time out shows he can threaten, but a lone win in his last six starts — coming five starts back — and a ranking of eleventh of fourteen on our figures make him hard to fancy at this level.

Noble Grace Harry Vigors(5) · Warren Greatrex

Noble Grace showed a smart turn of form when winning one start back, though a third last time out is the best she has managed since, and her speed rating of 58 leaves her with plenty to find on the figures against the top-rated runners here.

The Craftymaster Myla Coppins(5) · Tony Carroll

Second last time out, but a winner two starts back, The Craftymaster arrives on a sharp 18-day turnaround with distance and going experience in his favour, though his official rating of 59 sits well below our assessment of 71, hinting he may need to prove himself at this level.

Basilette Tyler Heard · Jeff Mullins

Basilette has found her form well of late, placing second twice in her last two starts, though a sixth three starts back shows she can disappoint; her sole recent win came five starts back, and she returns quickly on 11 days' rest with distance and going experience to call on.

Virtual Hug Kieran O'Neill · Nikki Evans

Virtual Hug has managed just one win in his last six starts, finishing sixth last time out and fourth on his two previous outings, and our rating ranks him thirteenth of fourteen here, making him hard to fancy; he does at least return within a reasonable 23 days and has experience of today's trip and going.

Buck Barrow Sean D Bowen · Adrian Wintle

Ranked 12 of 14 on our figures, Buck Barrow is hard to fancy at this level despite a third last time out and experience over today's trip and going; his sole recent win came five starts back, and he has been placed twice in between without truly threatening.

Corsican Caper Olivia Haines(7) · Kevin & Lauren Frost

Winless in his last five starts and ranked bottom of the field on our figures, Corsican Caper is hard to fancy, though 92 days off may have freshened him and he has run over today's distance and going before.
