San Aer arrives off a 49-day break after back-to-back fifths, with a second three starts back his best recent effort, and he has run over today's trip and going. Yet to win in his last six, he's helped by our 80 rating against an official 69, but a yard in cold form holds him back.

Winner last time out just nine days ago, with a second three starts back and another four starts back, so he arrives in good heart and has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 140 lb off an official mark of 80 and rated 75 by us, eighth of 15, he looks a midfield sort.

Winless in his last six, Jp's Express is hard to fancy, though a third last time out, just 12 days ago, shows he is in some heart, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Ranked 13th of 15 on our figures, he looks short of the class needed from stall 11.

Amplitude has been in the frame twice in his last six, with thirds four and five starts back, and he's back quickly after eight days, having run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 83 ranks him second of 15, but he's yet to win and was only seventh last time.

Fifth last time out and a second five starts back show some ability, but this filly is winless in her last five and has finished eighth and seventh in between. She has run over today's trip and returns after 17 days, though 132 lb from draw 4 is a stiff ask.

Lady Arwen won twice in her last six starts, five and six starts back, and was a third two starts back, but she was unplaced last time and has since come back quickly after 12 days. She has run over today's trip and going, though 131 lb from draw 2 and our ninth-ranked rating of 74 point to a midfield chance.

Sylkie is winless in her last five, with a seventh last time out and two unplaced runs before that, so she is hard to fancy. In her favour, she has run over today's trip and going, is back after 16 days, and a third five starts back shows she can go close.

Excuzio Joe arrives in better heart after back-to-back seconds, last time out and two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going, but she is still winless in her last five and carries 133 lb off an official 73. Our rating of 80 puts her seventh of 15, a midfield profile from draw 5.

Titanium is our pick on overall profile: he's back quickly after seven days, has run over today's trip and on this going, and his two fifths in recent starts show he can hit the frame's fringes. He's yet to win in his last six, though our rating of 83 points to better from 128 lb off an official 68.

Aquilla Star is hard to fancy, ranked last of 15 on our figures after a fifth last time out, and her yard is 0/24 lately. In her favour, she won two starts back and has run over today's trip and going before, while drawing stall 1.

Yet to win in his last three, Stable Lane was second last time out but a sixth, then another sixth, before that, and a 139-day layoff raises fitness doubts. He has run over today's trip and runs off 131 lb from stall nine, but ranking 12th of 15 on our figures makes him hard to fancy.

Earls is yet to win in his last six starts, with a third and a second five and six runs back now giving way to a ninth two starts back and an unplaced run last time out, though he's fit enough after 15 days and has run over today's trip and going. Our rating of 80 sits well above his official 70, but 130 lb from draw 14 is a lot to carry.

Our rating of 83 puts Cherry Hill Girl third of 15 and well clear of her official 74, while she's fresh enough after 16 days and has run over today's trip and going. The risk is a form line of unplaced, seventh and a third three starts back, and she's yet to win in her last six.
