Comment
English Time won last time out and was second two starts back, but a 112-day break is a concern, and he has run over today's trip before, though his results over it are not known. Carrying 131 lb from draw 10, he is ranked last of 18 on our rating of 78, which makes him hard to fancy.

Comment
Flight Control was second last time out and has finished in the first three in four of his last six, including a win three starts back, while he has run over today's trip and returns after 30 days. Against that, he carries 134 lb from stall 12, and our rating of 92 only ranks him seventh of 18.

Comment
God of War is consistent, finishing fourth last time out and fourth again two starts back, and our rating of 95 ranks him fourth of 18 while he has run over today's trip and going. The risk is that he's yet to win in his last six, so he may find one or two better finishers again.

Comment
Sergeant Wilko comes here fresh from a second last time out just eight days ago, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before; our rating of 96 ranks him third of 18. The risk is a patchy record, with an eighth and a ninth in his last six runs and yet to win in that spell.

Comment
Kodi Lion looks our pick on profile: he won two starts back, followed with a fifth last time out, and returns fresh after 26 days having run over today's trip. Carrying 139 lb from draw 2 is the one query, but our rating of 98 keeps him firmly in the picture.

Fourth last time out and fresh enough after 18 days, Ata Rangi has run over today's trip and going, but he's finished sixth and eighth since his win five starts back. Our rating of 94 sits above his official 85, though 133 lb from stall 18 asks plenty.

Humam is winless in his last six, though he has been third twice, three and five starts back, and has run over today's trip and going before. Unplaced last time out 37 days ago, he carries 134 lb from stall 17, and our rating of 88 leaves him a midfield sort.

Raging Raj was sixth last time out after a second two starts back, and he has won twice in his last six, but ranking 14th of 18 on our figures makes him hard to fancy at 132 lb from stall 13. He has run over today's trip and returns after 30 days.

Winless in his last six, Righthere Rightnow has managed just a third four starts back and was seventh two outings ago, though he has run over today's trip and returns after 25 days off. Our rating of 87 sits above his official 79, but carrying 127 lb from stall three he looks a midfield type.

Comment
Kisskodi arrives after a fifth last time out and an eighth before that, though he did win three starts back and has run over today's trip and going. A 43-day break and a midfield ranking of tenth of 18 on our rating temper the appeal from draw 7 under 133 lb.

Comment
Foreseen has been well beaten lately, a seventh last time out, a fifth two starts back and an eighth three starts back, and he returns after 51 days off, so he is hard to fancy. In his favour, he won four starts back and has run over today's trip and going before, from stall 1.

Daydreama is winless in his last six and unplaced in each of his last three, so he is hard to fancy, though a second four starts back shows he can go close. He has run over today's trip and going, is fresh from a 15-day break, and our rating of 84 ranks him 16th of 18.

Our Havana won four starts back but has managed only a ninth last time out and two unplaced runs since, so he arrives off a 37-day break needing a revival; he has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 91 ranks him eighth of 18, while 132 lb from stall 11 is the weight to carry.

Comment
One Smack Mac is winless in his last five and was unplaced last time out, but our rating of 98 puts him top of an 18-runner field, and he has run over today's trip before off an official mark of 89. The main risk is that the recent form offers little encouragement.
