8/11 FCST 8/13
Iconic Times bounced back to winning ways last time out and, drawn in stall two carrying 140 lb, he has experience of both today's trip and going. Our rating of 65 makes him the one to beat, though the quick five-day turnaround is worth noting.

Due Respect has been ninth last time out and eighth two starts back, and her recent sequence offers little encouragement; yet to win in her last six starts and ranked sixth of seven on our figures, she faces a stiff ask here despite experience over today's trip and going.
AI verdict

SR 35 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 16/1.

Rain Cap has run over today's trip and going, and at just nine days between starts he arrives in sharp order — his earlier third and second show he can get competitive when in the mood. The worry is that he's been winless in his last six, and that latest seventh suggests he can also disappoint.

Consistent front-runner profile makes Wait For It a genuine threat — third last time out, and second two starts back, she has experience over today's trip and going, and our rating has her well ahead of her official mark. The concern is that she runs just four days on.

Winless in her last six starts, Without Delay does bring distance and going experience to the table, and 19 days since her last run leaves her reasonably fresh; however, her recent string of unplaced efforts makes it hard to fancy her reversing that trend from stall one off 135 lb.

9/2 5/1 7/2
Winless in his last four starts, Free World at least returns on a reasonable freshness of 31 days and has experience of today's going; however, a fourth last time out masks a patchy recent record, and carrying 135 lb with our rating below the official mark are legitimate concerns.

Winless in his last five starts, Karthala does bring some encouragement — fifth two starts back and a second five starts back suggest he retains ability, and he arrives fit at 20 days since his last run with going experience in his favour, despite a hefty 135 lb to carry.

11/2 FCST 4/1
Fleur de Mer arrives here as our top-rated runner on adjusted figures, and her third three starts back and runner-up four starts back highlight a consistent knack for hitting the frame — she has run over today's trip and going, and 26 days off the track suggests she arrives fresh. The risk is that she has been winless in her last five starts and must prove she can convert.

Consistent without a win in her last five starts, Slack Alice nevertheless brings solid placed form — third last time out — and has run over today's trip and going; the worry is she must find improvement to justify a rating of 63 against this field.

Winless in his last six starts and ranked seventh of nine on our figures, Speechman has precious little to recommend him here despite returning quickly four days ago; he has run over today's trip and going, but a seventh last time out makes it hard to be enthusiastic.

Winless in her last five starts, Lillistar has shown some resilience — placed third last time out and third two starts back — but a 1lb deficit to her official rating and an eighth-of-nine ranking on our figures make her hard to fancy despite having run over today's trip and going before.

Winless in his last five starts, Star Of Jupiter at least has experience over today's trip and going to call on, and a run 40 days ago leaves him acceptably fresh — though his official mark of 45 and mid-pack ranking suggest he faces a stiff task against stronger rivals here.

SR 22 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 100/1.

Miss Rainbow brings strong recent form — third two starts back and third three starts back — and has run over today's trip and going, while 11 days ago keeps her fresh; the worry is that fourth last time out suggests she just held form, and 137 lb is a stern burden to overcome.

Lucius Aurelius ran third three starts back and struck in the fifth start listed, giving him a mix of promise and patchy recent form; he has run over today's distance and going, arrives fresh on 20 days' rest, and our rating of 63 puts him second of the eight, though the 136 lb burden is the obvious risk.

Howzak has been beaten out of the first four in three straight starts and, ranked last on our figures, makes no appeal at the weights. He has run over today's trip and going, and the 13-day turnaround suggests he's fit, but that's the limit of the case for him.

Ranked seventh of eight on our figures, Battenburg Belle is hard to fancy at the head of affairs, though she does arrive fit on a nine-day turnaround, has run over today's trip and going, and showed she can win when taking a race three starts back. Fifth two starts back is the concern.

Muhib has been placed in four of his last six starts — second last time out, and thirds two and three starts back — giving him a strong claims case at a mark of 46, though he remains yet to win in recent starts and that habit of running into a placing rather than forcing the issue is the chief concern.
