Alfa Whiteburd won last time out, backing up a good second the run before that, after modest form further back. He tops our figures, quick to return on a 7-day turnaround with today's distance in his favour, though the yard is out of form with just one winner from its last 25 runners.
AI verdict

SR 77 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Dicko The Legend remains without a win in six starts, fourth last time out after a third before that, though a below-par ninth further back is a concern. Fit on an 8-day turnaround with today's distance in his favour, he's up against it on our figures at only fifth of six.

SR 70 suggests ability but 5/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Dorney Lake won last time out to break a run of modest finishes, none better than fifth in the five starts before that. Quick to return on an 8-day turnaround with today's distance in his favour from stall five, that improved form makes him a threat to our selection.

SR 65 suggests ability but 17/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Willolarupi is without a win in five starts but has been fairly consistent, third last time out after a pair of fifths before that. He returns from a 284-day absence with today's distance in his favour, and while that lengthy gap is a concern, he remains a threat to our selection.

Mr Cool is without a win in six starts but was runner-up last time out, having also finished third three runs back. Fit on an 8-day turnaround with today's distance in his favour from stall two, that placed form makes him a threat to our selection.

One Of Our Own is the bottom-rated runner here but has been fairly competitive, third last time out, and a winner three starts back. She returns from a 52-day break with today's distance in her favour, though matching this field on our figures remains the obvious question.
AI verdict

SR 60 suggests ability but 10/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Alfa Whiteburd
Confidence: Medium

Alfa Whiteburd (SR:77, 10/11) is the standout ability-wise in this modest Class 5 sprint, carrying a 7lb weight advantage over the next-best rated runner Dicko The Legend (SR:70) despite the heavier burden of 9-13. The form string 7-6821 shows a recent win and a runner-up, indicating peak current form, and the booking of Silvestre De Sousa (14% strike rate, 774 career rides) is a strong positive signal — a jockey of that calibre doesn't accept Class 5 rides without reason. The GoingFit:- and DistFit:- are genuine concerns on good ground over 6f, but the SR gap of at least 7 points to any rival and the top jockey booking make the case compelling enough to side with the favourite. Each-way alternative: Dicko The Legend. Main danger: Dorney Lake — Dorney Lake has steamed in dramatically (Mkt:in30%), the strongest market move in the field, suggesting stable confidence from the Liam Bailey yard — and with a tongue-tie applied for the first time and a recent form figure of 1, the yard may have identified an improvement angle that makes the drift on stablemate Dicko The Legend look deliberate.
