Comment
That's Random won last time out, but he's been off for 121 days, and his previous finishes of fifth, eighth and sixth make that win look out of kilter. Our rating has him 17th of 18 against an official 67, and while he has run over today's trip, carrying 134 lb from stall one is a tough ask.

Comment
Tiriac steps up from a fourth last time out just 12 days ago, and he has run over today's trip and going, but he is yet to win in his last six starts, finishing fifth or sixth in four of them. Our rating of 72 sits above his official 66, though 134 lb from stall 17 is no small ask.

Comment
Dashing Dick is winless in his last six and was beaten into fifth, fourth, sixth, fifth and sixth before a second last time out, so he is hard to fancy at 13th of 18 on our figures. He has run over today's trip and going, and is back quickly after seven days.

HK Fourteen is winless in his last six, though a fifth last time out, 14 days ago, follows a fourth three starts back, his best finish in that spell, and he has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 137 lb from stall 6, he sits mid-pack on our rating of 70, ranked eighth of 18.

Fenlander was third last time out and returns just seven days later, having run over today's trip and going before, though he's been unplaced or beaten in three of the runs since a win six starts back. Carrying 138 lb from stall 2, our rating of 74 sits above his official 70.

Comment
Bay Breeze arrives in cracking nick, a winner last time out and again two starts back, fresh from a run 15 days ago, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 68 only ranks him 12th of 18, though, and 134 lb from stall 3 gives him plenty to carry.

Cairdeas ran a solid third last time out just 12 days ago and has run over today's trip and going, but he is winless in his last six and was unplaced two starts back. Our rating of 69 sits a few pounds above his official 65, though 133 lb from stall 8 leaves little margin.

Comment
Ranked second of 18 on our figures, Rascal Recknell is a leading threat: he is back quickly after 10 days, has run over today's trip and bumped into a second five starts back, with 75 against an official 70 suggesting room to improve. The risk is two eighths in his last two outings from draw 13.

Sargent Dennis was a second last time out just 11 days ago, but that came after an unplaced run, a fourth, an eighth and a seventh, with his only win six starts back. Carrying 134 lb from stall 12, he has run over today's trip, though our rating of 64 ranks him 16th of 18.

Comment
Spirit of Jenny was a winner four starts back and a second five starts back, but she has dropped to an eighth and then a fifth since, and a 60-day break raises fitness questions. She has run over today's trip and carries 134 lb from stall four, while our rating of 70 leaves her mid-pack.

Comment
Spacewoman has been in the frame without winning lately, a fourth last time out and a third two starts back, and her only win came five starts back. She has run over today's trip and going, but 128 lb from draw 11 and a 14th-of-18 ranking on our figures make her hard to fancy.

Lamlash Bay is hard to fancy on our figures, ranked 15th of 18 after a sixth last time out and a ninth three starts back, though he did win two starts back and five starts back. He has run over today's trip and going, is back after 11 days, and carries 132 lb from stall 15.

Comment
Yet to win in his last six, Ziggy's Condor has still been second and third in that spell, and he returns 25 days after his latest run with experience of today's trip and going; our rating of 74 sits above his official 70. The risk is a sixth-placed run and an unplaced effort last time out, carrying 138 lb from stall 16.

Comment
Milford Grange is without a win in his last six, and a ninth last time out is a blot, though he was third two starts back and fourth the run before, and he has run over today's trip and going. Fourteen days since his last run keeps him fit, but 131 lb from stall 10 and a rating of 70 for ninth of 18 mark him as midfield.

Comment
Trust Amy is yet to win in her last six starts, but she has a third four starts back and has run over today's trip and going before, while our 78 ranks her top of 18 against an official 67. A 35-day break and a sixth last time out leave her fresh, though 134 lb from stall 18 is a lot to carry.

Comment
Moonlight Melody is winless in her last six, with a fourth last time out and a third three starts back her best efforts, so she is hard to fancy. Ranked bottom of 18 on our figures, she does at least run fresh after 11 days and has experience of today's trip and going, from draw 14.

Comment
Fourth last time out and a second six starts back show some ability, but Try Storm Cat is winless in his last six and returns after 123 days off; he has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 71 sits above his official 67, though 134 lb from stall seven is no gift.
