Methgal shows ability, with a second five starts back, though a seventh last time out fell short 28 days ago. He has run over today's trip and going before and looks capable of better, with this yard's lean recent spell a mild concern.

Thapa VC arrives in form, winning last time out and following a second three starts back. He has run over today's trip and going before, is fit again after just 10 days, with only that single success from six starts a mild reservation.

Top-rated on the day, Noble Guest has run over today's trip and going before and was a third two starts back. Winless in his last five starts, but a fair 142 lb from stall 8 and a 23-day break make him one to respect.

Rusheen Boy has two wins in his last five starts, the latest two starts back, though he was a below-par fifth last time out 33 days ago. He has run over today's trip and going before, which could aid him now back in action.

Orange Emperor has been fairly consistent without a win, with a third last time out following a second two starts back. He has run over today's trip and going before, and a 31-day gap since his last run leaves him fresh for another crack.

Way To Dubai has been fairly consistent, matching a fourth last time out with the same effort three starts back. He has run over today's trip and going before, but a 27-day break and a yard managing just 1 from 23 lately temper the case.

Mayfair Market is without a win and her form has faded, following a ninth last time out that continued a downward trend from a fourth five starts back. She has run over today's distance before, though a modest profile on our figures leaves her hard to fancy against these.

Minshaar was a fair way below her best when eighth last time out, and a 146-day absence since adds to the concerns. She won five starts back and has run over today's trip and going before, but finding this level again from an extended break looks a stretch.

El Carrusel is without a win, though a second five starts back shows some ability, and he sits bottom of our ratings here. He has run over today's trip and going before and is fit again after just 11 days, but this looks a tough task from here.
