Comment
Ranked seventh of nine on our figures, Sanafi Zabeel is hard to fancy at a hefty 158 lb from stall six, and his recent form shows just one win in his last six starts, that victory coming last time out, with a fifth and fourth in the two runs before that.

Comment
Epidavros shaped with promise when third three starts back and returns on a quick 16-day turnaround having run over today's trip and going, with our rating of 73 suggesting she holds strong claims; yet to score in recent starts, though, and that winless run is the main concern.

Comment
Up The Jazz shaped well when second three starts back and returns fit on 13 days' rest with experience of today's trip and going; the main concern is that he has been out of the frame in his last two starts.

Comment
Winless in his last six starts, with placings no better than fourth in that sequence, Jewel Maker faces a stiff task — a trainer strike-rate of just five per cent over the past fortnight does little to inspire confidence, though he has run over today's trip and going and returns quickly from stall two.

Comment
Winless in his last five starts and representing a trainer in poor form, Titian nonetheless rates prominently on a speed figure of 81 and ranks second in the field on our assessment; the 65-day absence is the chief concern.

Comment
Winless in his last five starts, Pedro The Poet nonetheless holds a clear edge on ratings here and has run over today's trip and going before; a 93-day break demands respect, but the weight of 157 lb from stall eight makes him the one to beat.

Winless in her last five starts, Eagles Dream has experience of today's trip and going but has struggled for consistency, with a pair of eighths in recent outings; drawn three and carrying 148 lb, she remains a difficult convencer here.

Winless in her last six starts and ranked bottom of the field on our figures, On The Bubble faces a stiff ask here, though she does bring distance and going experience and was second three starts back to suggest she retains some ability.
