East Ilsley, Berks
Owner: The Fairy Story Partnership
Breeding
Sire: Golden Horn (GB)
Dam: Quiz Mistress (GB)
Damsire: Doyen (IRE)
Comment
Fourth last time out and a second two starts back suggest Ataturk is in reasonable shape, and he has run over today's trip, but he is yet to win in his last five and returns after 97 days off. Our rating of 63 sits above his official 59, though he carries 131 lb from stall 14.

Sire: Showcasing (GB)
Dam: New Desire (IRE)
Damsire: Dansili (GB)
Comment
Fresh from a win last time out 24 days ago, New Objective has the form to build on, though a ninth three starts back and a fourth two starts back show his consistency is patchy. He has run over today's trip and going before, but 131 lb from stall 12 is a big ask, and our rating of 62 ranks him tenth of 17.

Comment
Grindleton arrives in cracking nick, second last time out and runner-up in three of his last six, while he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 70 ranks him third of 17, but he remains winless in that spell and 130 lb is a notable burden.

Comment
Fifth last time out after a third two starts back and a win three starts back, Ricardo Phillips is solidly consistent and fresh enough after 20 days, having run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 133 lb from stall five, he's rated sixth of 17 by us, but a slip to fifth hints at a ceiling.

Comment
Somethingintheair is winless in her last five, beaten into sixth last time out after a third two starts back, and a 64-day break adds to the doubts. Carrying 132 lb from stall four, she is ranked 16 of 17 on our figures, though she has stayed in the mix.

Comment
Winless in his last five, though a second last time out and a third five starts back show he can get involved, but 35 days off and a 14th-of-17 ranking on our figures make him hard to fancy. He has run over today's trip and going, and carries 130 lb from stall three.

Damsire: Epaulette (AUS)
Comment
She bounced back to form with a second last time out just 11 days ago, and she has run over today's trip and going before, which makes her our pick on overall profile. Winless in her last six, she still carries 135 lb from stall 17, with our rating of 70 ranking her second of 17.

Breeding
Sire: New Bay (GB)
Dam: Danamight (IRE)
Damsire: Danetime (IRE)
Comment
Stipulation arrives in decent shape after a third last time out just 15 days ago, and a second three starts back shows he can get involved; our rating of 67 ranks him fourth of 17. The main risk is that he is yet to win in his last six starts, and 134 lb is a stiff burden.

Comment
Fizzy Bear arrives fit after 14 days and was third two starts back, with a fourth the run before, but he was only sixth last time and is winless in his last six. He has run on today's going, and our rating of 62 sits above his official 57, though he carries 129 lb from stall 2.

Comment
Pureis King won twice in his last six starts, four and five runs back, but he's since faded to a sixth, two starts back, and an unplaced run last time out. He has run over today's trip and is fresh enough after 18 days, though a cold yard and 133 lb from stall 16 temper the appeal.

Comment
Gatlinburg is winless in his last five, though a fifth last time out and a fourth three starts back show he is not far off at this level, and he has run over today's trip. A 32-day break and 132 lb from draw 13 temper that, but our rating of 67 sits above his official 60.

Damsire: Sakhee's Secret (GB)
Comment
Roman Secret has finished fifth in her last two starts and has won just once in her last six, a win three starts back, so she is hard to fancy at this level. She has run over today's trip and going and is fit after 12 days, but 132 lb from draw 7 is a big ask.

Comment
Winless in her last four, Hotel California finished seventh last time out 47 days ago, and her best recent effort was a fourth two starts back, so she is hard to fancy. She has run over today's trip, but 129 lb from draw 11 and a ranking of 15 of 17 on our figures offer little encouragement.

Comment
Kathleen Mary tops our ranking at 71 against an official mark of 59, and she has run over today's trip, though a sixth last time out, a sixth two starts back and a 216-day absence are the concern in a field where she is yet to win recently.

Comment
Man From Havana has been unplaced in his last two outings and is winless in recent starts, with a fifth four starts back his best finish, though he has run over today's trip and is fresh from a 14-day break. Carrying 135 lb from draw 10, his 62 rating ranks him 12th of 17.

Comment
Corduroy is winless in his last five, with a fifth last time out and a ninth five starts back, and he returns after 157 days off, which makes him hard to fancy. A third three starts back is the best of it, while he carries 128 lb from draw 15 and our rating of 51 ranks him last of 17.
