Prefer The Sister returned to her best last time out, scoring with something in hand off a lower mark, and now tries a first-time tongue-tie. Effective at today's trip and ground, she's a leading threat from a wide draw, with plainer efforts before that win the only blot.

Dion Baker has won four of his last six starts, following up smartly from a lower mark last time out, with first-time cheekpieces proving the making of him. Suited by today's trip and ground, he's clearly the one to beat, though he does carry a stiff weight.

Comment

Kondratiev Wave ran creditably last time despite a shorter trip than ideal, having also finished runner-up in the two starts before that. Stepped up to a trip and ground he handles, with first-time cheekpieces added, he can feature again, though the five-week absence is a small concern.

Dalmally is winless in his last five starts, racing well off the pace when beaten comfortably last time out. He does own form at today's trip and ground, but on this evidence he'll need to find plenty more to figure among the principals.

Comment

My Boy Jack finished well to be third last time out, even up in trip, continuing a run without a win across his last six starts. He's suited by today's trip and ground and is normally ridden patiently, so he can't be ruled out altogether, without being fully convincing.

Comment

Mighty Ruler fell early last time out at Lingfield, ending what had been a fairly steady campaign otherwise, still without a win in six attempts. Proven over today's trip and ground, with first-time cheekpieces added, he remains capable of running well again, though the mishap raises a fitness question.

Rainbow Sorbet is winless in four starts and was outpaced when dropped in trip last time out. A first-time visor is added and she does hold form at today's distance and going, but a wide draw and modest efforts make her hard to trust in this company.
