Comment
Four Springs counts two wins in his last five starts, a second two starts back and a third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. The main risk is a 220-day absence and a pulled-up effort last time out, with 168 lb to carry.

Comment
Jamada's recent form reads well, with a third last time out, a winner two starts back and a third three starts back, but 151 days off is a long absence and he carries 158 lb. He has run over today's trip and going, yet our figures rank him fifth of six.

Damsire: Rail Link (GB)
Comment
Without a win in his last five, Marche d'Aligre still shows a pair of seconds and a third in that spell, has run over today's trip and going, and our top-ranked runner of six on 122 against an official 116 is a leading danger. The risk is a 192-day absence and 166 lb on his back.

Comment
Lady Kara arrives in good heart, second last time out and second two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going before. Back out just six days later, the main risk is whether she's fresh enough off 155 lb, though our rating of 112 backs her as a leading threat.

Comment
Cheesy Icon has been in the frame in his last two, third last time out and a second two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. A 290-day absence is the one reservation, though our rating of 117, third of six, gives him a tentative chance off 166 lb.

Comment
Ask A Sainte has been beaten in his last two, a seventh last time out and a fourth two starts back, with a pulled up before that, so he is hard to fancy at the bottom of our ranking. On the plus side, he has run over today's trip and going, is back quickly after nine days, and won five starts back.
