Runner by runner
Completely Random Lewis Edmunds · Harry Charlton
Completely Random shaped well when second three starts back and has experience of today's trip and conditions, with our rating of 110 putting him narrowly top of this 14-runner field; a 43-day break is the one query, but he looks the one to beat off 138 lb from stall 4.
Crestofdistinction David Probert · Jack Channon
Crestofdistinction has shown he can mix it at this level, finishing second in recent starts, and he has experience over today's trip and conditions, while our rating of 105 marks him as a genuine threat from stall two; the chief concern is that he arrives 123 days between runs and is yet to score in his last five.
Invictus Gold Cieren Fallon · Tom Clover
Invictus Gold shaped well for a second three starts back and has run over today's trip and going, with our rating of 103 putting him right in the mix; the concern is he arrives winless in his last five starts after two disappointing efforts since that placed run.
Blue Brother Callum Rodriguez · Hamad Al Jehani
Blue Brother has run over today's trip and arrives here 24 days fresh, his rating of 105 marking him out as a genuine contender among 14 rivals from stall 11; the concern is that he has been winless in his last five starts, with a fifth last time out the best he could manage recently.
Berkshire Whisper Oisin Murphy · Andrew Balding
Winless in his last five starts and unplaced on his most recent outing 43 days ago, Berkshire Whisper at least has experience of today's trip and conditions, and a rating of 102 offers some encouragement — though his inconsistent recent form makes him a tricky proposition from stall six carrying 129 lb.
Asuka Hector Crouch · George Boughey
Asuka won twice in the middle of his recent sequence and was third last time out, so form is solid if slightly flattened at the finish on his latest outing; he has run over today's trip and going, carries 128 lb from stall three, and returns after 22 days off.
Lakers Rowan Scott · Kevin Philippart De Foy
Winless in his last five starts, Lakers at least showed up with a third last time out and has run over today's trip and going before; 14 days between runs suggests he arrives fresh, though his rating of 97 makes him a midfield proposition from stall five.
Knebworth Oliver Hoodless(7) · Richard Hughes
Knebworth returns after 78 days off ranked well down the field on our figures, and he faces a stiff ask on the back of an unplaced last effort; in his favour, he has experience over today's trip and going, and his two wins in his last five starts prove he can find the line.
Oliver Show Pat Cosgrave · George Boughey
Oliver Show has shown enough in recent starts to warrant respect, finishing second last time out after two runs without troubling the judge, yet he remains winless in his last five; the experience over today's distance and going helps, and our rating of 99 gives him a fighting chance from stall nine carrying 125 lb.
Indian Run Ryan Sexton · Julie Camacho
Third last time out and a winner three starts back, Indian Run brings distance and going experience to the table and looks fit enough after a 34-day break, though carrying 125 lb from stall 13 and ranked eighth of fourteen on our rating suggests he faces a stiff ask against stronger company.
The Liffey Sean Levey · Hayley Burton
Ranked well down the field on our figures and a well-beaten sixth last time out, The Liffey is hard to fancy at the weights despite carrying 125 lb from stall one, though he has experience over today's trip and going, and three wins in his last six starts show he retains ability on his day.
Milford Tom Kiely-Marshall(5) · Julie Camacho
Milford showed promise with a second two starts back but has otherwise struggled in recent starts, remaining winless in his last five; he has run over today's distance and going, and at 120 lb from stall eight, the ratings edge he holds may be his most compelling case.
Justcallmepete Jack Dace(5) · Tony Carroll
Ranked 13 of 14 on our figures, Justcallmepete has been unplaced on his latest start and has managed just one top-three finish in his last four, making him hard to fancy here despite distance and going experience and two wins in his last six starts.
Pietro Saffie Osborne · James Fanshawe
Pietro has managed just one win in his last five starts and ranks last on our figures here, making him hard to fancy on current form, though he has run over today's distance and going before and arrives on a quick 17-day turnaround.
