9-12
12/1 9/1 12/1
Won off a 5lb lower mark on this card last year and effective over marathon trips on any ground, but Ascending may have reached a plateau and was well beaten in a Group 3 latest, suggesting the current mark is against it.
AI verdict

Ascending carries top weight of 9-12 with a modest Saturday Rating of 86 and disappointing recent form showing a seventh-place finish.

22/1 16/1 22/1
Consistent prior to a puzzling below-par York flop latest, Stressfree ticks the boxes on distance and going and rates a leading danger on our figures — the main risk is whether that York run left its mark.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-12 with a modest Saturday Rating of 82 and uninspiring form of 355-27 makes Stressfree a weak selection.

22/1 FCST 20/1
Runners-up twice and a dual winner in recent starts, Paddy The Squire has course-distance-going form to draw on, but two disappointing efforts since those wins — including being outpaced and beaten over eight lengths at York — suggest the current mark may have caught up with him, and first-time cheekpieces plus a cold trainer compound the concern.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-12 with a modest Saturday Rating of 78 and a disappointing latest form figure of 6 limits confidence.

13/2 FCST 6/1
Consistent performer who won a Boodles Handicap at Newmarket last time off a 4lb lower mark, but now racing off a revised rating that raises the bar; acts on today's conditions and distance, though the higher weight and mark are legitimate questions.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-12 with a modest Saturday Rating of 87 and neglected by the market as a non-favourite limits confidence despite recent winning form.

9-12
40/1 28/1 40/1
Proven over course and distance, the first-time cheekpieces could sharpen this strong-staying type who acts on today's conditions, and the yard has a good record with similar profiles — though a disappointing latest run and an absence since leaves fitness the main query.
AI verdict

Rated just 79 on Saturday with poor recent form (41637-) and carrying a hefty 9-12, Hallelujah U offers little appeal.

22/1 22/1 18/1
Real Dream has been winless in its last five starts but arrives with the handicapper relenting and today's longer trip a clear plus on a sound surface it handles well; first-time headgear adds interest and our top rating of 119 marks this as the one to beat.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-11 with poor recent form of -64077 and a low Saturday Rating of 79 makes Real Dream a weak selection.

9-11
66/1 40/1 66/1
Winless in his last five starts and well beaten in a Newmarket handicap on his most recent outing 44 days ago, Yashin looks flattered by last year's Group win on this course and has been too inconsistent to fancy under a big weight, despite a significant jockey booking and proven course-and-distance form.
AI verdict

Yashin's poor form (7606-0), high weight of 9-11, and low Saturday Rating of 78 make this a weak contender.

6/1 5/1 11/2
Quickened well but probably hit the front too soon and was caught late when second off a mark of 97 last time — 2lb higher here and ranked well down our figures, Gamrai looks up against it despite the yard winning this race last year.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-11 with a modest Saturday Rating of 90 and inconsistent form of 124-12 limits Gamrai's winning prospects.

9-10
40/1 FCST 33/1
Beaten 7¼ lengths at Carlisle last time when unsuited by the drop in trip, Enemy is better judged on earlier successes and remains on a competitive mark over today's distance and going — though a struggling trainer strike-rate and first-time headgear introduce some uncertainty.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-10 with inconsistent form (-13109) and a modest Saturday Rating of 85 limits Enemy's winning prospects significantly.

2/1 32/17 7/4
Boasts a fine recent sequence — three wins in its last five starts, including a cosy 1¼-length handicap success at Hamilton off a mark 8lb lower than today — and is a rapidly progressing stayer with more improvement expected; the 8lb rise and 136lb burden are the chief concerns for a trainer firing at 37%.
AI verdict

Valiancy's strong form (1321-1) and top weight of 9-10 are offset by a Saturday Rating of 90 and unfavoured market position.

Green Cape is last on our figures and has been inconsistent in recent starts, while 129 days off the track adds to the query marks; first-time cheekpieces and a switch of stable offer slim hope, but this looks a tough ask at the weights.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 83 and inconsistent form figures of 514-94 under top weight of 9-10 undermine Green Cape's chances.

Winless in its last five starts and comfortably held in a Group 3 last time out, Aeronautic holds few secrets from the handicapper and returns after a 116-day break; first-time headgear and proven course-and-distance form offer slim positives, but this looks a tough ask.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with uninspiring form of 337-36 and a modest Saturday Rating of 81 limits Aeronautic's appeal.

Consistent sort who shaped with promise at Chester last time, beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark, and a drop in trip looks a plus; winless in recent starts and a hefty 135lb may test its chances of converting.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 79 and inconsistent form of 940-63 limits Duraji's appeal.

Ran to form when a game second at York last time off a 2lb lower mark, and there's reason to think longer distances will unlock more — effective at 12-14f and potentially better beyond, though today's trip and the 135lb burden are the key variables to weigh.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 86 and inconsistent form of 971-32 limits confidence.

Landed a Kempton handicap off a 7lb lower mark last time, so the revised rating makes this considerably tougher, and ranked near the foot of the field on our figures, it's hard to fancy despite proven ability on today's going over this trip.

Carrying top weight of 9-8 with a modest Saturday Rating of 78 and inconsistent form of 400-41 limits confidence.

Consistent filly who proved her Listed-class credentials with a close third at Goodwood 46 days ago, and she's proven effective over today's trip on this surface — the main worry is that she remains winless in her last five starts.

Valiancy
Confidence: Medium

Valiancy (SR 90, 9-10) shares the top SR in the field alongside Gamrai but carries 1lb less and has a superior recent form line of 1321-1, showing consistent winning ability and a last-time-out victory that confirms peak fitness. At 4 years old on good-to-firm ground over 1m6f, the trip looks well within range for a progressive stayer from the William Haggas yard — a trainer who consistently targets competitive handicaps at Royal Ascot-style meetings with horses in form. The 9-10 weight is fair for the SR 90 rating and sits comfortably below the cluster of top-weights on 9-12, giving a genuine lb advantage. Gamrai (SR 90, 9-11) is the only horse matching on SR but carries a pound more. Each-way alternative: Gamrai. Main danger: Gamrai — Gamrai (SR 90, 9-11) from the powerful John & Thady Gosden yard shows a form line of 124-12 with two recent victories, demonstrating consistent winning form at a similar class and rating to Valiancy — only 1lb separates them and the trainer's runners at Ascot demand respect.
