Chianti silks
Chianti
Age 2 · 9-7

148
2
9-7
13/2 7/2 6/1
Disappointed on debut, beaten 10l in a novice despite market support, and improvement likely on that bare form; effective at 5f. Trainer out of form at present is the concern.
AI verdict

Chianti's strong Saturday Rating of 148 and competitive 4/1 market odds justify confidence despite a single fifth-place form entry.

Fly Test silks

9-7
12/1 8/1 10/1
Sprint-bred and at a similar level to his debut in limited starts so far, Fly Test has not found much yet but has the pedigree to progress once handicapping; nothing in the form to recommend here on current evidence.
AI verdict

Fly Test's mid-tier 144 Saturday Rating, 9/1 odds, and poor form figures of 08 justify a cautious 3-star assessment.

Green Titan silks

2
9-7
4/5 5/6 4/5
Stepped up considerably from a forgettable debut to go close in a novice at Salisbury last time, beaten 2l in a performance full of promise, and Green Titan is with a trainer who has a strong strike rate here. The drop to 5f on fast ground may not be ideal for a horse who has shown his best form over 6f on soft.
AI verdict

Strong 153 Saturday Rating and near-favourite 10/11 odds justify 4 stars, despite form showing only one runner-up finish.

Articulate silks
Articulate
Age 2 · 9-4

123
2
9-4
50/1 33/1 50/1
Unraced debutant by Showcasing, a £5,000 breeze-up purchase whose dam was smart at 7f as a juvenile and is a half-brother to Perfect Spring, a fair 6f performer; the trainer is in good form. Lowest-rated in the field on our figures and hard to assess without a run.
AI verdict

At 40/1 in the market carrying 9-4 with unknown form and a Saturday Rating of 123, Articulate shows little winning prospects.

Kaiulani Spirit silks
Kaiulani Spirit

9-4
14/1 17/2 14/1
Short of pace on her only start, failing to land a blow at Carlisle on debut and beaten 6l, Kaiulani Spirit rates second on our figures and needs significant improvement to feature; scope for better keeps her in the picture.
AI verdict

Kaiulani Spirit's sole form figure of 6th and 11/1 odds suggest limited market confidence despite a competitive 144 Saturday Rating.

7
South West silks
South West
Age 2 · 9-4

9-4
18/1 12/1 18/1
A slow start cost South West on his only outing, never competitive in a Bath maiden, but he is from a good yard, has speed in his pedigree, and is the type to improve; trainer out of form recently is a note of caution.
AI verdict

Rated 136 but hindered by weak form figure of 9 and long-shot 14/1 odds signal limited market confidence.

8
Nasserein silks
Nasserein
Age 2 · 9-2

—
136
2
9-2
25/1 14/1 25/1
Twice fifth in limited starts, Nasserein matched his debut level at Ffos Las last time but is yet to show anything to excite here; trainer badly out of form at present is a further negative, though he is the type to do better once in handicaps.
AI verdict

Long odds of 16/1, weak form figures of 55, and a Saturday Rating of 136 signal limited winning prospects here.

9
Tallahassee Lassie silks
Tallahassee Lassie
Age 2 · 9-2
65
—
144
2
9-2
6/1 8/1 9/2
Twice in mid-division in limited starts, sprint-bred Tallahassee Lassie has not quite built on her debut and goes in the frame on our figures at a midfield rank; a firm surface will be in her favour and there is room for improvement when handicapping, though 10l beaten last time is a stiff ask.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 144, distant 9/1 market price, and uninspiring form figures of 65 limit confidence to three stars.

8-13
10/1 11/1 8/1
It'sbeenemotional has not reproduced her best form over shorter trips and found the trip sharp at Lingfield last time, beaten a long way; better suited to 6f on an artificial surface, this looks a tough assignment on current evidence.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 143 is solid, but 12/1 odds and weak form figures of 47 limit confidence.

5
9-9
2/1 6/1 7/4
Effective at 7-8f on today's going, Midnight's Dream was beaten 3l off this mark at Doncaster last time, though a tendency to be too keen hampered the effort; the settling angle remains the key if he is to show his best form here.
AI verdict

Form reading 390006 and a Saturday Rating of just 66 make 11/4 odds look overpriced despite carrying only 9-9.

Dancing With Drums

9-8
10/1 17/2 10/1
Finished well beaten in eleventh on his most recent start off today's mark and needs a sharp revival after a poor run; Dancing With Drums has form over this distance but acts on good to soft and AW, and today's faster ground is an added query.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-8 with a Saturday Rating of 64 and inconsistent form of -57130 limits confidence despite fair 15/2 odds.

9-8
12/1 18/1 12/1
Moving in the right direction when beaten 3¼l at Nottingham last time off a slightly higher mark, Bass Player is suited to 7-8f on today's ground and first-time cheekpieces could help; winless in recent outings and our figures suggest he needs more to be competitive.
AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 50, 16/1 odds, and poor form reading 34-905 combine to make Bass Player a weak contender at 9-8 weight.

5
Berning Hot silks
Berning Hot
Age 4 · 9-6

9-6
SP 18/1 28/1
Capable of better and effective at 7-8f on a sound surface, Berning Hot has been inconsistent and was well below form beaten 9l at Beverley last time; showing more than that is the task here.
AI verdict

Outsider odds of 25/1, a lowly Saturday Rating of 37, and a form string of 738626 suggest Berning Hot is carrying 9-6 to no effect.

Moonhall Lass silks
Moonhall Lass

9-6
2/1 10/3 7/4
Finishing third off today's mark last time with her best work coming late, Moonhall Lass has two wins in recent form, handles the trip and ground well, and goes with a first-time visor; she is a live threat. The worry is a patchy record between her good runs.
AI verdict

Carrying 9-6 with patchy form (311883) and a modest Saturday Rating of 64 limits Moonhall Lass to mid-market appeal at 9/2.

9-5
11/1 6/1 11/1
Placed consistently earlier in his recent form but below those efforts at this course last time, Call Glory is effective at 5-7f and acts on today's going; he needs to show more than recent starts to be a factor.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 59, inconsistent form (342356), and 9-5 weight burden leave Call Glory unconvincing at 7/1.

8
No Gain silks
No Gain
Age 4 · 9-5
465212
56
68

9-5
SP 7/4 11/4
Went a neck away at a higher mark last time and is in good heart, No Gain is effective from 7 to 12f on a sound surface and the application of first-time headgear adds a touch of interest; up 4lb here, which is the main question.
AI verdict

Solid recent form (465212) and competitive 5/2 odds are offset by a modest Saturday Rating of 68 and a hefty 9-5 weight.

Montpellier Green silks
Montpellier Green

88900-
55

9-4
11/1 33/1 10/1
Winless and largely out of the money in recent starts, Montpellier Green has struggled throughout this campaign across a wide range of distances and last seen well beaten; 187 days off the track since and figures rank her last in the field.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 36, weak form of 88900-, and 28/1 odds signal a horse the market has firmly dismissed.

9-3
SP 20/1 25/1
Doing his best work late after a slow start at Lingfield last time, Jackson Street has won in recent form and handles the distance and going; our figures put him below the principals and he needs to find improvement to feature.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 37, outsider odds of 25/1, and a deteriorating form string of 1-2764 combine to make Jackson Street a weak contender carrying 9-3.

11

9-1
13/2
Going well prior to finding 1m too far at Doncaster last time, beaten 5l when the trip found him out, Mini Mac is suited to 7f and the return to a shorter distance looks a clear asset; a trainer in strong form and first-time blinkers add confidence. Winless in recent starts remains the caveat.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 54, inconsistent form (608420), and 17/2 odds suggest the market holds little confidence in Mini Mac.

9-9
6/1 13/2 6/1
Held to form last time, going down by just 2l off a mark 2lb higher than today's, and Pisanello is well suited to 8-10f on any going; a hold-up style should allow him to pick off rivals late in a 12f contest, and the mark looks workable. Without a win in recent starts is the straightforward caveat.
AI verdict

Poor recent form (984575) and a low Saturday Rating of 51 make 15/2 odds unconvincing despite manageable weight.

9-8
7/2 11/4 10/3
Returned to form with a 5l third in a handicap on his most recent start, Ottoman has found his conditions here in 10-12f on a sound surface and the first-time cheekpieces could extract more; he is interesting if he reproduces that effort. Yet to win in recent starts is the concern.
AI verdict

Ottoman's 3/1 odds and 9-8 weight suggest market respect, but a Saturday Rating of 57 and patchy form of 650-83 limit confidence.

evn 18/13 5/6
Landing a classified race at Ffos Las by 4l just two days ago in a manner that left something in reserve, Pureis King arrives here in excellent form; effective at 10f on good ground and top of our rankings. A quick turnaround and penalty are the only reservations against a horse clearly in his best form.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight 9-11 with a Saturday Rating of 65 and inconsistent form 08821 limits confidence despite fair 11/8 odds.

9-6
4/1 3/1 10/3
Landed a handicap here last time off a mark 4lb lower, overcoming a slow start to assert with something to spare, and Clipsham Noble stays a broad range from 8 to 12f on a variety of surfaces; a trainer in good form adds confidence. Up 4lb now so the task is slightly tougher, and he usually needs to come from behind.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight 9-6 with a modest Saturday Rating of 57 and inconsistent form -46541 limits confidence despite fair 4/1 odds.

50/1 40/1 50/1
Consistently held in recent outings and without a credible performance in UK company, Abila has experience of today's distance and going; she seemed suited by longer trips in France, but was comfortably beaten last time here and the figures offer little encouragement.
AI verdict

Outsider odds of 40/1, poor form figures of 9-5066, and a low Saturday Rating of 28 signal minimal winning chance.

SP 13/2 10/3
Fourth in a classified race at Lingfield last time, holding a consistent level, Myna has won in recent form and handles today's going; first-time hood is a talking point and she is capable of a similar showing. Without a win for a while suggests she may face a tough task at the top end.
AI verdict

Myna's moderate Saturday Rating of 55 and inconsistent form (236144) at 9-5 weight justify a mid-tier 3/5 assessment.

Out of form throughout recent starts and failing to land a blow down the field at Windsor most recently, Majestic Leo faces an uphill task; first-time headgear applied and handles today's conditions, but needs to find significant improvement to figure.
AI verdict

Carrying 9-1 at 50/1 with a Saturday Rating of 26 and form showing 060890, Majestic Leo offers no winning angles.

Despite rearing at the start last time, Duke Orsino kept on for fourth at Lingfield, doing well to finish as close as he did in the circumstances; handles today's going and is effective at 7-10f. An exposed maiden profile and weak recent form make him hard to enthuse about.
AI verdict

Carrying 9-1 at 40/1 with a Saturday Rating of just 27 and dismal form of 0-9044 makes Duke Orsino a clear market outsider.

The return to a longer trip should help Coverbridge, who was below her best at a shorter trip last time; effective from 7 to 12f on a range of surfaces. Without a win in recent form and lowest-ranked on our figures, she needs everything to fall right.
AI verdict

Rated just 27 with 33/1 odds and a form string of 0-0548, Coverbridge offers minimal winning prospects.

9-0
5/6 6/5 5/6
Kept to a consistent level, finishing a close second at Southwell just a week ago off this same mark, Startling is well placed on ground and trip she handles, and a trainer in strong form adds appeal. Still without a win in recent starts, though that run confirms she has the ability.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-0 with a modest Saturday Rating of 68 and uninspiring form of 6P-832 makes 4/7 odds poor value.

Hard to fancy off a poor recent sequence, Bibendum has failed to make the frame in latest outings and finished well beaten at Doncaster last time; the first-time visor and experience of today's conditions offer slim reasons for optimism but our figures put her well held.
AI verdict

Bibendum's weak 3-0450 form and low Saturday Rating of 63 undermine its 11/2 market claims at 8-10.

Showed a return to form when going down by just 2l at Nottingham last time off this same mark, and Bang On The Bell handles all conditions including today's going over this trip; first-time blinkers from draw 1 can help. The worry is a sequence without a win in recent starts.
AI verdict

Solid 3/1 market position and a Saturday Rating of 64 are undermined by inconsistent 785382 form carrying 8-9.

Awful form in recent starts with finishes well down the field, and Dunnington Lad's figures place him at the foot of this market; a willingness to get on with it from the front is the one genuine positive, but there is precious little else to commend him here.
AI verdict

Carrying 8-4 with a Saturday Rating of just 46, rock-bottom form of U-9067, and 14/1 odds reflect market dismissal.

Fourth in a maiden last time at a broadly consistent level, Pacific Glory is bred for middle-distances and may improve for handicapping; our figures put him well below the principals here, though, and he is hard to be confident about at this stage.
AI verdict

Short form of 494 and a heavy 9-9 weight limit the appeal despite attractive 4/6 odds and a 76 Saturday Rating.

A genuine, free-moving stayer who goes well at this distance on a sound surface, Zooter finished a fair third two starts back before finding soft ground against him at Ffos Las most recently; back on faster ground here, the form and the mark both look right. Yet to win in recent starts is the straightforward note of caution.
AI verdict

Zooter's mid-range Saturday Rating of 74 and inconsistent form of 4-2534 justify a cautious 3/5 despite fair 4/1 odds.

Connections have strong form at this track and Fille Imbassee has a win in recent form; at 8-9f she is proven at a similar distance, though not seeing out 10f last time here is something she needs to address. First-time hood is a talking point and she has a fair chance at a slightly lower weight.
AI verdict

Carries top weight of 9-7 with inconsistent form of -13404 and a mid-tier Saturday Rating of 73 at 13/2.

A middle-distance pedigree and the prospect of improving in handicaps are the main selling points for Baron Wagstaff, but keen tendencies have cost him and his form has been poor; 71 days off the track and below-par recent performances make him hard to recommend.
AI verdict

Middling Saturday Rating of 68, a form string of 468, and 9-6 weight limit his winning chances despite fair 11/2 odds.

10-5
1/5 2/3 1/5
Progressive and coming off back-to-back wins, Pentonville landed a handicap at Brighton last time off a mark 6lb lower, finishing strongly to score, and top course connections add further confidence; effective at 1m-10f on a sound surface. A penalty makes the task harder and he needs to handle the rise in the weights.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 10-5 with a Saturday Rating of 91 and short odds of 4/9, recent form -25211 shows inconsistency despite two wins.

The reappearance run at Thirsk was below his best but that run can be forgiven, and Napolian has consistently been in the frame in recent starts over 6f on today's type of going; if he bounces back to form he looks a genuine danger. Second-ranked on our figures with solid placed form is a strong foundation.
AI verdict

Napolian's mid-range Saturday Rating of 76 and inconsistent form figures of 2334-8 justify a modest 3-star rating at 5/1 carrying 9-9.

Returning from a 132-day break and likely to need it, Venturing showed some ability in a maiden when fourth at Dundalk, having been supported in the market; effective at 1m on artificial ground and heavy going, which raises questions about today's fast surface.
AI verdict

Venturing's modest Saturday Rating of 67, unfancied 13/2 odds, and inconsistent form figure of 79-4 justify only 2 stars.

SP FCST 15/2
Beaten 10l after a slow start last time, which was well below his best, Norcross Brow is effective at 7-8f on good to soft and artificial ground and comes from a trainer in strong form; off a break of 70 days he will need to bounce back sharply, but the mark is fair if he does.
AI verdict

Carrying 9-2 with a Saturday Rating of just 64, inconsistent form (8-2468), and unfancied at 8/1, Norcross Brow offers little appeal.
