9-2
12/1 14/1 11/1
American Gal is winless in her last five, with an eighth last time out and a seventh five starts back as her best finishes, though she is fresh enough after 20 days and has run over today's trip and going. Our rating of 102 sits above her official 96, but she carries 128 lb from stall 4.
AI verdict

SR 90 suggests ability but 12/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

9-2
22/1 9/1 22/1
Breckenbrough is hard to fancy, having slipped from a third five starts back to a sixth last time out and remaining winless in her last five outings. She has run over this trip and on this going, and she's fit enough after 20 days off, but 128 lb from draw 10 asks plenty with our figures ranking her tenth of twelve.
AI verdict

SR 77 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 18/1.

Dash of Azure has twice finished second, three and four starts back, and has run over today's trip and going, but she's yet to win in her last six and was only ninth last time out, 48 days ago. Drawn 2 and carrying 128 lb, she looks a mid-pack type on our rating of 100.
AI verdict

66/1 50/1 66/1
Mostar Dreams is hard to fancy after back-to-back ninths and no win in her last six starts, though a third and a second earlier in that run show some ability. She has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 94 ranks her ninth of 12 off 128 lb from stall five.
AI verdict

SR 69 suggests ability but 66/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

9/1 9/1 7/1
Runner-up last time out and a winner four starts back, Albaydaa has run over today's trip and going, and a 30-day break is no concern, though an eighth two starts back shows she can be inconsistent. Drawn one and carrying 126 lb, her 96 rating ranks only seventh of 12.
AI verdict

SR 93 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Awaken is fresh from a run 14 days ago and has experience over today's trip and going, while our top-ranked runner at 103 sits four pounds above her official 99, despite carrying 126 lb from stall three. The risk is that she is still without a win, with a sixth last time out and a fourth two starts back.
AI verdict

SR 84 suggests ability but 18/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Domina Ignis has a win five starts back and a third four starts back, and she's fresh enough after 20 days, having run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 103 puts her second of 12, but a seventh last time out is the worry.
AI verdict

12/1 25/1 17/2
Josh's Joy won four starts back and was third five starts back, but she has since finished a seventh, then a fifth, then a fifth last time out, so the trend is down. She has run over today's trip and is rated 95 by us, eighth of 12, after 34 days off.

Without a win in her last six starts, Just A Girl has been placed four times in that spell, including a third last time out, but she was eighth two starts back and has had 56 days off. Carrying 126 lb from draw 12, she has run over today's trip and going, yet our figures rank her 11th of 12.
AI verdict

Midnight Tango has a second three starts back to point to and has run over today's trip and going, while our rating of 102 ranks her fourth of 12. The risk is a sixth last time out and 42 days off, leaving her yet to win in her last five.

25/1 33/1 14/1
Sixth last time out after a third two starts back, and now 44 days off, Secret History has to prove the winning run is behind her, though she did win three starts back, and again five and six starts back. She has run over today's trip and going, but ranks last of twelve on our figures from draw 7.

Air Force One arrives a last-time-out winner, with another success three starts back, and has run over today's trip and going, though an eighth two starts back shows his consistency can wobble. Carrying 129 lb from stall one, he sits only eighth of 11 on our rating.

Aramram arrives fresh enough after 14 days, has run over today's trip and going, and our 114 rating, second best of 11, marks him a leading threat from stall 10 off 129 lb. The risk is a winless last six, with just a second six starts back to show.

33/1 22/1 33/1
Winner last time out and fresh enough after 22 days, he has run over today's trip and on this going, but a fourth two starts back and a sixth four starts back show inconsistency. Carrying 129 lb from stall six, our rating of 100 ranks him tenth of eleven, so he is hard to fancy.
AI verdict

SR 77 suggests ability but 40/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

King of Light won last time out and has run over today's trip and going, but that came after a string of finishes between fifth and eighth, and he's back quickly after seven days. Carrying 129 lb from draw 9, he ranks 11th of 11 on our figures, so he's hard to fancy.
AI verdict

SR 75 suggests ability but 28/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Lifeplan won three and four starts back, then a third two starts back, but he was unplaced last time and returns after 42 days off. He has run over today's trip and going, though our rating of 104 ranks him seventh of 11 and he carries 129 lb from stall 11.

Regional is our top-rated runner, and he arrives fresh after 27 days, a fourth last time out and a third four starts back, having run over today's trip and going before. He is yet to win in his last five, but our 122 rating sits well clear of his official 107 from draw 4.

Shagraan arrives fresh from a second last time out just 14 days ago, and he has run over today's trip and going before, so conditions hold no mystery. Our rating of 113 ranks him fourth of 11, but he is yet to win in his last five starts, which is the main risk.

Tuco Salamanca arrives in cracking nick, a second last time out, and a winner two starts back, with three wins in his last six and just 14 days since his previous run. He has run over today's trip and going, but carries 129 lb and our rating of 111 only ranks him fifth of 11.
AI verdict

Fluorescence arrives in fine heart, a winner last time out and a winner three starts back, with a fourth two starts back in between, and she has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 127 lb from draw 8, she is ranked only sixth of 11 by our rating of 106, which tempers the enthusiasm.

First Instinct is fresh enough after 14 days and has run over today's trip and going, with a second three starts back showing her ceiling, while our rating of 113 ranks her third of 11. The main risk is that she's yet to win in her last five and was only fifth in her last two outings.

Heavenly Heather is winless in her last six, with a ninth last time out and two unplaced runs before that, so she is hard to fancy. A second five starts back and a run just 15 days ago show she's fit, and she has run over today's trip and going, but our rating has her ninth of 11.

Al Aasy arrives in cracking form, a winner last time out and a third two starts back, with another success three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 122 tops the field, and the only quibble is 136 lb after a 34-day break.

Royal Playwright has been consistent, with a win four starts back and a third two runs ago, and he has run over today's trip and going before. A 120-day absence after a fifth last time out is the main risk, though our rating of 112 keeps him in the mix.

Elmonjed won two starts back and four starts back, and was fourth last time out, so he arrives with a solid recent profile and has run over today's trip and going before. The 91-day layoff is the one reservation, but he is our pick on overall credentials from stall 10.

Winless in his last six, Completely Random was only fifth last time and fourth the run before, which makes him hard to fancy, though a second four starts back shows he can go close. He has run over today's trip and going, and 130 lb is a big burden, while our rating ranks him ninth of 12.

Diligent Harry arrives fit after 14 days, a third last time out, and a winner five and six starts back, with experience of today's trip and going; he is top of our ranking at 115 against an official 108. The risk is a fourth-last-start dip, an eighth two starts ago, that shows he can underperform.

Stratusnine has been well beaten of late, finishing sixth in each of his last three starts, which makes him hard to fancy, though a second four starts back and a win five starts back show he has had better days. He has run over today's trip and going, and 14 days since his last run is no concern, but 130 lb from stall 11 is a lot to ask.

Poet Master has run over today's trip and going before, and a second and a third in his last five starts show he's capable of this level. Our rating has him top of the 18, but two sevenths last twice and a 67-day layoff are the worry.

Two Tribes returns just 14 days after his last run and has a third two starts back and a second five starts back, while he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 106 ranks him third of 18, though the main risk is that he is yet to win in his last six and was unplaced last time out.

Thunder Call arrives in cracking form, a winner last time out, a second two starts back and three wins in his last five, and he has run over today's trip and going. Even so, 133 lb off an official 102 is a big ask, and our figures rank him only 15th of 18.

Great Acclaim is yet to win in his last six, with a seventh last time out and a ninth and eighth before that, though he was third four starts back and second five back. He has run over today's trip and going, but 49 days off and 132 lb from draw 14 temper the appeal.

Hickory arrives a winner last time out, and also won three starts back, though a fifth two starts back shows his form can wobble. He has run over today's trip and going, but 132 lb from draw 9 and a 12th-ranked rating of 100 leave him midfield.

Moonfall arrives in solid nick, runner-up last time out and again two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. A winless spell since his success four starts back and a hefty 132 lb from stall 11 keep him in the midfield picture.

Mezcala won twice in his last five starts, including three starts back, but he has since slipped to an unplaced run and a sixth last time out, and he has run over today's trip and going. A cold-running yard (0/21) and 130 lb from stall 16 temper things, while our rating of 102 only ranks him ninth of 18.

Golden Mind has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 105 ranks him fourth of 18, well clear of his official 95 off 128 lb from stall four. The risk is a run of four unplaced efforts, leaving him winless in his last six.

Winner last time out and three times a victor in her last six starts, Machadadorp has run over today's trip and on this going, though a sixth two starts back shows her form can wobble. A 44-day break and 127 lb from draw 13 add to the questions, and our rating of 102 ranks her tenth of 18.

Runner-up last time out and just 20 days fresh, Adrestia has run over today's trip and going before, which makes her our pick on overall profile. Her earlier form is patchy, but she's yet to win in her last five and still has an official rating of 96.

Gold Star Hero looks a serious threat, finishing third last time out and a second three starts back, with 28 days since that run and experience of both today's trip and going. The main risk is a winless streak since a victory six starts back, while our rating of 98 ranks him third of 13.

Regal Envoy bounced back with a second last time out, though he's only won once in his last six starts and that was six runs ago. He has run over today's trip and going, and 21 days' rest suits, but 131 lb from stall seven is a tall order.
