Carry The Flag returns to winning form, following up a success four starts back with another last time out, with a below-par ninth the outlier in between. Top of our figures and with today's distance and going already covered, he rates the one to beat on this evidence.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-5 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Celeron won two starts back but was unplaced last time out, on a thin body of recent form. Already has today's distance and going under his belt, but he's rated bottom of this field on a modest speed figure, leaving plenty to prove.
AI verdict

SR 156 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Confucius won three starts back and backed that up with a third last time out, sandwiching a blip of sixth in between. Rated second of seven with a solid speed figure, he already has today's distance and going under his belt and looms as the chief threat up top.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-5 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Immortal Guard won three starts back and has stayed competitive since, third and then second in his last two starts. Already has today's distance and going under his belt, and rated third of seven, though a modest speed figure of 79 is the main knock against the leading pair.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-5 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Switching Sides won last time out to follow a runner-up effort, a short but tidy recent record. Already has today's distance under his belt, though he's rated only sixth of seven on a modest speed figure, leaving him with plenty to find in this company.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-5 gives a real edge in this handicap.

The Scallionator won two starts back after a runner-up effort three starts back, but the campaign has since stalled with an unplaced run last time out. Already has today's distance and going under his belt, and a moderate speed figure fits a mid-pack finish rather than a leading role.
AI verdict

SR 72 suggests ability but 33/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Tribeca won two starts back but was unplaced last time out, a mixed recent picture. Already has today's distance and going under his belt, and rated fourth of seven, he has the figure to feature if that below-par run last time proves the outlier.
AI verdict

SR 143 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Celeron
Confidence: Medium

Celeron (SR 156, 7/1) carries the joint-highest Saturday Rating in the field alongside Switching Sides, and crucially the market has steamed in 39% from its opening price — the sharpest market move in the race and a very significant signal in a Group 2 where informed money is rarely misplaced. At 7/1 that market confidence is not yet fully reflected in the price, making this a value proposition. Oisin Murphy (22% career strike rate, 1,169 runners) is a high-quality booking who wins on horses with live chances, and his presence alongside such aggressive market support reinforces the case. The form figure of '10' means a debut win followed by a tenth-place finish, which on its own looks concerning, but the SR of 156 — 45 points clear of Confucius and Immortal Guard — reflects significant underlying ability, and the market clearly believes the last run is explicable. Each-way alternative: Switching Sides. Main danger: Confucius — Ryan Moore (27% career strike rate) aboard the A P O'Brien yard's 6/5 favourite means connections are clearly bullish, and if the SR data is underrating a lightly-raced juvenile who has shown progressive form ('2163'), Moore can deliver on the day.
