9-12
66/1 100/1 50/1
Rock Of Cashel landed a win two starts back but has been unplaced either side of it in recent starts; he has run over today's trip and going, and drops from stall one carrying 138 lb — a solid each-way profile on paper, though consistency remains the query.
AI verdict

SR 67 suggests ability but 66/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in his last five starts, Alpha Crucis nonetheless posted back-to-back second-place finishes earlier in this sequence and a rating of 97 underlines his strong claims from stall five; the worry is that three subsequent finishes of fifth, fifth and sixth suggest he may be just finding his level.
AI verdict

SR 76 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 18/1.

Returned a winner two starts back and third last time out, so recent form gives him solid claims, but 50 days off and a hefty 136 lb to carry from stall 12 are the checks on his chance; has run over today's trip and going.
AI verdict

SR 91 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Winless in his last five starts, Real Gain nonetheless showed a third five starts back and boasts experience over today's trip and going. Carrying 136 lb from stall 18 after an 86-day absence is worth monitoring, but a rating of 97 marks him out as the one to beat here.
AI verdict

SR 77 suggests ability but 14/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Consistent and classy in recent starts, El Matador has finished third or better in four of his last five outings and shaped with plenty of promise; he has run over today's distance and going and our rating puts him right in the mix — though 135 lb and a 37-day absence are the main questions.
AI verdict

SR 95 suggests ability but 8/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in his last five starts, Ammes does offer encouragement — a second three starts back and a third five starts back suggest he finds a way into contention, though converting that into success has eluded him; a trainer firing at 36% and a return after 28 days at least give connections reason for optimism.
AI verdict

SR 84 suggests ability but 12/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Ran well for third two starts back but has been beaten out of the places at either end of that, including sixth last time out; has run over today's trip and going, and 135 lb is no gimme, though 21 days gives him a fair enough prep.
AI verdict

SR 97 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

40/1 25/1 33/1
Winless in his last five starts and carrying 134 lb from stall 7, Nostrum's most recent efforts have been modest — though a second four starts back hints at ability; the trainer's lean current spell (1/28) is an added concern, despite experience over today's trip and going.
AI verdict

SR 62 suggests ability but 40/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Two wins in his last five starts show he can find the winner's enclosure, and he has run over today's trip and going before — but that ninth last time out and a ranking of 16th of 18 on our figures make him hard to fancy here.

Won two starts back but has been beaten into the mid-pack either side of it, and today's 134 lb burden doesn't help his cause; he has run over today's trip and going, though, and there's a small ratings edge to work with.

Winless in his last two starts and ranked 14th of 18 on our figures, Shafdar is hard to fancy on recent form, though two wins in his last six starts shows ability is there; the 49-day absence adds a question mark, but he has run over today's trip before.

Crest Of Fire arrives here in solid heart — second last time out and third three starts back, with experience of today's trip and going — and at 132 lb he carries a hefty burden that could blunt his finishing kick.

Ranked bottom of the weights on our figures, Thinthread is hard to fancy at these weights despite a win three starts back and a third two starts back; he arrives reasonably fresh at 30 days, but his last two efforts have disappointed.

Winless in his last five starts, Great Chieftain at least brings distance and going experience to the table, and 17 days between runs suggests he arrives fresh; however, carrying 131 lb from stall 11 makes life harder for a gelding who has struggled for consistency.

Winless in his last five starts, with three sixths and a seventh among them, First Ambition faces a stiff task ranked 15 of 18 on our figures; he has run over today's trip and 30 days between runs suggests he arrives fresh, but the overall profile makes him hard to fancy.

Landed a win two starts back but has returned unplaced most recently, and 44 days off the track adds a fitness query; has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 96 suggests some unexposed ability, though he'll need to bounce back sharply.

Spell Master
Confidence: Medium

Spell Master (SR:97, 5/1) is the highest-rated horse among those without disqualifying fitness concerns, carrying a fair 9-9 and dropping a class from his last run. The 37% market move in signals genuine professional confidence — from what appears a bigger opening price down to 5/1 — making this the most emphatic steam in the field. His recent form (01-836) includes a win two runs back and a mid-field effort at what looks a tougher class, and the drop back to Class 3 gives him a realistic opportunity. Trainer Oli Rix (16% SR, 25 runners — a small but efficient yard) and Ray Dawson (15%, 403) are a workmanlike combination, but it's the SR leadership among genuinely fit, class-dropping runners combined with the +3 mark move (manageable) and the weight (9-9, mid-pack) that seals the selection. Each-way alternative: Crest Of Fire. Main danger: Blue Courvoisier — Blue Courvoisier (SR:104, 4/1) carries the second-highest SR in the field, has a confirmed GoingFit:+ on today's good-to-firm going, is dropping a class, and has only drifted 8% — a very modest move that doesn't undermine his claims; a clean run from the low weight of 9-3 makes him the most obvious threat.
