Beaten out of sight in his latest point outing and making little impression in points overall, Don De La Frontera is hard to recommend ranked last on our figures. The stable has produced bumper debut winners this year — market support would be the trigger to reconsider.

✦AI verdict
Modest form figures of 78- and 12/1 odds suggest mid-tier potential, but 137 Saturday Rating keeps him competitive.
Showed much better form when runner-up at Tabley latest, beaten 3 lengths in a maiden point, and returns after a short break. Placed in a point race, he may still be learning the Rules game, but has enough about him to be considered at 5th on our figures.

✦AI verdict
Long odds of 28/1 and inconsistent form figures of 6U-42 undermine confidence despite a competitive weight of 11-4.
Made a pleasing debut at Worcester, 8¼l third in a bumper, and has winning form in points. The stable has a strong record in this race, and rated 2nd on our figures, Litaque is a serious contender — the modest nature of the point win is his only reservation.

✦AI verdict
Strong 147 Saturday Rating and competitive 4/1 odds offset slightly by inconsistent F-13 form and 11-4 weight burden.
Narrowly denied on his debut at this course and trip, beaten just a head in a bumper here 16 days ago, Masterius is the form pick with scope to build further. Rated 1st on our figures, he acts on this going and looks the one to beat.

Consistent form figures of 22, a competitive 6/4 market price, and a strong Saturday Rating of 155 justify the four-star assessment.
A debut run from a stable capable of landing bumpers first time out, Parisian Fair is a Way To Paris gelding out of a dam who stayed at 14 furlongs. His market moves on the day are worth following.

Strong Saturday Rating of 147 at 5/1 odds makes Parisian Fair a compelling each-way market alternative carrying 11-0.
A Flat-bred Ghaiyyath gelding making his debut, Secret Message has a half-brother who landed a Listed prize and a dam who showed smart ability on the level. Stamina questions remain, though betting interest on the day would make him more compelling.

✦AI verdict
Long odds of 33/1 and no recognised form make Secret Message a 2/5 outsider despite carrying 11-0.
A Yorgunnabelucky mare making her debut in a first-time tongue-tie, Ayla's Star is bred from staying bloodlines — her dam showed moderate form from 10 to 19 furlongs. This initial run looks likely to be a learning experience, though the pedigree has staying potential for the future.

✦AI verdict
A Saturday Rating of 125 and 50/1 odds mark Ayla's Star as a long-shot outsider with little market support.
Unable to match the early gallop on her bumper debut at Southwell, Guerdale was well beaten and has plenty to find against more exposed rivals here. With just the one run behind her, she needs significant improvement to feature.

✦AI verdict
Long odds of 40/1, a single sixth-place form figure, and unfavoured market position leave Guerdale with little to recommend.
Showed plenty on her bumper debut at Plumpton, finishing third with the form subsequently validated by later events. Acts on this going and suits today's trip; rated 4th on our figures, she looks set to build on that experience and is a genuine danger.

✦AI verdict
A single third-place form effort and 14/1 odds suggest mid-tier potential, reflected in a 141 Saturday Rating.
Well beaten on her only start — an Amateurs' bumper at Worcester where she couldn't match the early pace — Poppieholla arrives with little form to assess but was well fancied on debut, suggesting connections expect better. A step up on that initial effort is expected.

A Saturday Rating of 147 and single form figure of 8 suggest ability, but 8/1 odds and non-favourite status limit confidence.
Finished runner-up on her bumper debut at Plumpton, beaten 5½l, with subsequent events backing up that debut form. Acts on this going at today's trip and should progress; rated 3rd on our figures, she is one of the stronger dangers in this field.

Parisian Fair owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (82) and market confidence (77). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Masterius holds the highest SR in the field at 155, a clear 3-point edge over second-best Zandahar (SR 152), and critically carries only 11-0 — the joint-lightest weight among rated rivals. The Form:22 record shows consistent placed effort at this maiden level (ClassMv:=), and a course visit (Course:W0P1) gives him a familiarity edge in an otherwise course-inexperienced field. At 6/4, the market is firmly behind him despite David Pipe's modest 10% strike rate, and no horse in the field can match his combination of SR and light weight. The 16-day turnaround is brisk but not alarming given his young age (4) and the yard running him confidently off a recent placed run.
Each-way alternative: Zandahar.
Main danger: Litaque — Litaque (SR:147, 4/1) has a Form:F-13 line showing a recent third and a win in successive starts, trained by Mickey Bowen with son James Bowen riding — a powerful combination — and at 4/1 the market rates this as the most credible threat to the favourite.
