Collective Power appeals as the top-rated runner in this field and shaped with promise when third two starts back, giving him strong claims despite carrying 168 lb from stall 11; the main concern is that he has been winless in his last six starts.

SR 82 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Faoladh won last time out and his trainer is firing at 29% in the past fortnight, but two unplaced efforts in the three starts prior to that win and 40 days off the track give pause; he has run over today's trip and carries 168 lb from stall one.

Ranked well down on our figures among these thirteen, Initial Blue has been off for 70 days and the weight of 168 lb is a stiff ask, though he does show a win last time out and has run over today's trip before.

SR 75 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Sporting Hero brings a recent win in his last six starts to recommend him, and he has run over today's trip before; the concern is that his last four outings have yielded three unplaced finishes and a sixth, so he must bounce back sharply from that patchy recent sequence.

SR 62 suggests ability but 14/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Profit Surge won two starts back and has placed on four other recent occasions, so she clearly knows how to compete, and she has run over today's trip before; however, fourth last time out on a quick nine-day turnaround and a hefty 166 lb to carry may test her reserves here.

SR 66 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Ran sixth last time out and has been largely out of the frame in recent starts, though she did score one start further back — a win six starts back — and has run over today's trip before; the 165 lb burden from stall 8 makes life harder.

Ranked bottom of the field on our figures and with only one win in her last six starts, Kitty Bear is a tough proposition, though she has run over today's trip before and a trainer striking at 29% in the past fortnight offers a crumb of comfort.

Rappell has won once in his last six starts, with that victory two starts back and a second three starts back offering some encouragement, but an unplaced return latest and a lowly ranking on our figures make him hard to fancy at the weights.

Winless in his last six starts, Bold Optimist at least showed a flash of promise with a third and a second earlier in that sequence, though consecutive unplaced efforts since are a concern; he has run over today's trip and returns quickly on eight days' rest carrying 162 lb from stall seven.

Third last time out, and a winner two starts back, Jon Riggens arrives here just one day after his latest run which may test his stamina for the contest, but he has experience over today's trip and a 9 lb pull on his official mark gives him a solid profile to build on.

Lightly raced profile but No More Porter showed enough when third two starts back to merit respect here, and his 76 rating edges above his official mark of 72 — drawing stall four carrying 171 lb is the one question mark.

Collective Power owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (46) and market confidence (85). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Even weighting across form, market confidence and race-day volatility.
Collective Power (SR 82, 10/3) is the clear SR leader in a workmanlike field where most runners sit below 75, and his mark has dropped 6lb since his last win — the most favourable weight adjustment in the race. The 13% market steam from opening price is the strongest inward move in the field and confirms professional support. Jockey Mr J L Gleeson carries a 20% career strike rate, well above stable average, suggesting this is the Lynam yard's #1 runner over stablemate Jon Riggens who has drifted a calamitous 42% and carries top-weight of 12-3 with DistFit:- and GoingFit:-. At 10/3 with the best SR, a falling mark, and clear market confidence, Collective Power is the most credible winner on all available evidence.
Each-way alternative: Initial Blue.
Main danger: Rappell — Rappell (SR 72, 17/2) carries only 11-9, wears a tongue-tie, and his recent form string 906210 includes a second last time out — if that near-miss form is live on this going he could outrun his price at a useful weight advantage over the favourite.
