Patagonia Girl has distance and going experience to call on and a speed rating that edges ahead of her official mark, making her a genuine threat here; the worry is her recent finishing positions have been modest, with just one win in her last five starts.

Charmaine has been knocking on the door with a string of fourths in recent starts, and a runner-up finish four starts back shows she can go close — our rating of 88 makes her a leading threat off 141 lb, though she remains winless and needs to finally convert.

Ran third last time out after a 43-day break, and he has winning form in recent starts — a winner three starts back and again five starts back — but he carries 139 lb and our rating of 80 ranks him fifth of seven, suggesting he faces a stiff task here.

Winless in his last five starts, Westerton nonetheless catches the eye on ratings — our figure of 90 has him top-rated, and he returns fit on 13 days' rest having run over today's trip and going before; the risk is that his recent form figures simply don't back it up.

Timber Twelve catches the eye on recent form, winning one of his last two starts and boasting three wins in his last five; he has experience of today's trip and going, and 32 days between runs shouldn't inconvenience him. A trainer in lean form is the one note of caution.

Song Of The Clyde won three starts back and returns fit on 15 days' rest, with experience of both today's trip and going working in his favour at 130 lb from stall 8. The risk is that back-to-back seventh-place finishes since that win must be overcome.

Winless in his last five starts, Ardisia nonetheless showed a glimpse of ability when third two runs back, and he has experience of both today's trip and going; 43 days off and 127 lb from stall four are the key questions as he seeks a return to that form.

Calico Blue arrives on the back of a win last time out, with two victories in his last five starts and a trainer firing at 36% in the past fortnight — he's a serious threat here. The main risk is whether his speed rating of 92 matches the level required.

Lifeplan arrives on the back of back-to-back wins but has been off the track for 345 days, and our rating of 100 leaves him well below the top end of this field. The form he carries is encouraging, but fitness after such a lengthy absence is the obvious concern.

Ran well to win three starts back but has finished only fifth and then unplaced since, leaving her form hard to trust; has run over today's trip and going before, and a 45-day break could freshen her up, though she'll need to rediscover that earlier sparkle from stall ten.
