Comment
Fresh from a win last time out and back within ten days, Ice Show has a third two starts back to build on, and she has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 130 lb from stall four, her mid-pack ranking of tenth of 14 on our rating suggests she's up against it.

Comment
Amarachi arrives in solid recent form, third last time out only 13 days ago, a second two starts back, and a winner three starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 136 lb from stall 10, she's rated 65 by us, seventh of 14, with a modest speed rating of 55 holding her back.

Comment
Fourth last time out, and a winner two starts back, he arrives off a 37-day break having run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 138 lb from draw eight, his rating of 66 ranks him sixth of 14, though a ninth and an eighth earlier show his consistency can wobble.

Sire: Expert Eye (GB)
Dam: Girls Talk (IRE)
Damsire: Shamardal (USA)
Comment
Eve's Boy is a serious threat on our figures, ranked third of 14 with a 67 rating, and he's fit after 11 days off, with experience of today's trip and going from stall 6. The main risk is a winless run of six, never better than fifth, from a yard 0/29 lately.

Sire: Alkumait (GB)
Dam: Approachable (IRE)
Damsire: Dawn Approach (IRE)
Comment
Fit after just 11 days, Alkumatic Jo Jo has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating of 69 ranks her second of 14 against an official 61. Without a win in her last six, though, she's finished fifth last time out and the risk is she lacks that finishing kick.

Comment
Rua Mor returns after 21 days on the back of a third last time out, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before, while our rating of 67 ranks him fourth of 14. The main risk is that he is winless in his last five starts, with an eighth two starts back.

Comment
Boubyan has been consistent without a win, finishing fifth last time out and fifth two starts back, with a third three starts back, and he's fresh enough after 13 days. He has run over today's trip and going, but 134 lb from stall 5 looks a lot, and our rating of 64 ranks him ninth of 14.

Comment
Won last time out and is only 11 days fresh, but that came after a seventh, a sixth and an eighth in his previous three runs, and carrying 131 lb from draw 9 makes him hard to fancy; he has run over today's trip and going, while our rating of 61 ranks him 12th of 14.

Comment
Showtown arrives fresh from a fourth last time out, 13 days ago, and a second two starts back shows he is in better heart; he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 74 tops the field, and while still yet to win in recent starts, he looks the one to beat from draw 1.

Comment
Rugby Union has been beaten in five of his last six, finishing seventh last time out, and his only win came two starts back, so it is hard to fancy a gelding ranked 14th of 14 on our figures. He has run on today's going and is back after 17 days, but he carries 129 lb from stall 13.

Comment
Turtle Reef is yet to win in his last five starts, though a third last time out, 20 days ago, offers some encouragement, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 137 lb from stall 14, he is hard to fancy with our figures ranking him 13th of 14.

Comment
Two wins in her last six starts, but both came five and six starts back, and she has been unplaced in her last two outings. She has run over today's trip and on this going, and 16 days since her last run keeps her fit, though 137 lb from draw 2 is a hefty burden for a midfield type.

Comment
Cusack has been unplaced in his last three outings and is yet to win in recent starts, with a sixth and an eighth before that, though he is fresh enough after 17 days and has run over today's trip and going. Our rating of 66 ranks him fifth of 14, which suggests more ability than an official mark of 58 implies.
