Ingleby Archie shaped with promise when third three starts back and went one better with a win four starts back, showing he can deliver on his day; the concern is that his last two efforts — fifth and eighth — suggest he needs to rediscover that form at the weights.

Fiscal Policy showed promise with a third two starts back but has been winless in his last six, and a fifth last time out — just 12 days ago — keeps the profile mixed; he has run over today's trip and going, and 142 lb from stall six makes this a stern ask.

Winless in his last five starts, Bloodsweatandtyres does at least return quickly on 15 days' rest and has experience over today's trip and going, but a string of unplaced efforts — with only a fifth three starts back to show — makes it hard to fancy him from this sort of profile.

Winless in his last four starts and ranked tenth of twelve on our figures, Test Run faces a stiff task here; he has experience of today's going and returns after a respectable 17-day break, but it is hard to make a strong case for him from stall nine off 133 lb.
AI verdict
SR 35 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 50/1.

Thunder Goddess has been winless in her last five starts, and our rating ranks her ninth of twelve here, making her hard to fancy at face value; that said, she arrives just seven days on from her latest run in solid condition, has experience over today's trip, and back-to-back runner-up finishes suggest she at least stays competitive.
AI verdict
SR 67 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Winless in his last six starts, Distinction nonetheless catches the eye on speed figures — our rating of 63 comfortably clears his official mark — and he returns fit on 19 days' rest with distance and going experience to call on; the risk is that recent form has been modest at best.
AI verdict
SR 53 suggests ability but 11/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

A second two starts back and a winner four starts back give Regulus Black some credentials, though a fifth last time out checks enthusiasm; he has run over today's trip and going, and 130 lb is a fair enough ask for a gelding rated 57.

Grindleton ran second two starts back and shapes as a leading threat off a 20-day break, having run over today's trip and going before, with our rating of 66 suggesting he holds more ability than his official mark of 57 implies; the main risk is that he remains yet to win in his last five starts.
AI verdict
SR 62 suggests ability but 17/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
