Jockey: Kevin Stott
Trainer: Michael Appleby
Oakham, Rutland
Owner: Julian Ball Partner
Breeding
Sire: Territories (IRE)
Dam: Intrusion (GB)
Damsire: Indesatchel (IRE)
Comment
Intrusively is yet to win in his last six starts, though a fifth last time out, 17 days ago, suggests he is not out of sorts, and he has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 130 lb from stall three, he sits fifth of 13 on our rating of 77, but a run of sevenths and a ninth keeps him a midfield type.

Comment
Atmosphere has been in the frame in four of his last six, including a third two starts back, but he is yet to win in that spell and was unplaced last time out. He has run over today's trip, and our rating of 73 sits just above his official 70, though 132 lb is a stiff ask.

Comment
Criminal Shore is winless in his last six, with a seventh last time out and nothing better than a third three starts back, so he is hard to fancy as the tenth-ranked of 13 on our figures. He has run over today's trip and going, and 17 days since his last run keeps him fit enough.

Comment
Three wins in his last six starts catch the eye, though he has slipped to a fifth then a sixth since, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Fit enough after 17 days off, he carries 135 lb from stall five, and our rating of 76 only ranks him sixth of 13.

Abduction arrives fresh from a run 13 days ago, having been placed in four of his last six, including a third two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 77 sits above his official 72, but he is yet to win and was only sixth last time out.

Comment
Havana Rum is our selection on profile: he was fourth last time out, 23 days ago, after a second three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. He is yet to win in his last six starts, though our figures make him a leading contender from stall 10.

Comment
Honved is winless in his last five, unplaced in each of his last three, and a fourth four starts back is his best finish in that spell, so he is hard to fancy. In his favour, he has run over today's trip and going, and our rating ranks him 12th of 13.

Comment
Belgrave is yet to win in his last five starts, with a fifth two starts back his best finish, but he has run over today's trip and going and our 79 puts him third of 13, a clear edge on his official 73. The big risk is a 370-day absence, so fitness is a real question.

Comment
Regalian tops our ranking at 83 against an official mark of 71, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before, with 133 lb from stall 12. The risk is a poor run of form, with finishes of eighth, sixth and eighth, and he is yet to win in his last six starts.

Comment
Black Storm was only ninth last time out, and he's only 12 days since that run, but he did win three starts back and has run over today's trip and going before. Carrying 131 lb from draw 8, he looks mid-pack at best, with our rating of 72 ranking him ninth of 13.

Comment
Not Me won four starts back but has tailed off since, with an eighth two starts back and an unplaced run last time out, and he returns after 62 days off. He has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating of 72 sits above his official 68, though 130 lb from stall six is a lot to carry.

Comment
Runninsonofagun has finished sixth in each of his last two outings and was unplaced three starts back, so it's hard to fancy him, though a winner four starts back shows he can do it. He's back quickly after 13 days, has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 69 ranks him 11th of 13.

Comment
Spartan Fighter looks hard to fancy as our bottom-ranked runner of 13, yet he arrives in fair heart with a second last time out, a win two starts back and a quick 10-day turnaround. He has run over today's trip and going, though 128 lb from stall nine is a stiff ask off an official 66.
