Rory Rocket won last time out and also scored three starts back, form that puts him top of our figures for this. Fresh from a 32-day break and with today's trip and ground already proven, the only slight query is a below-par 6th sandwiched in between.

AI verdict

SR 76 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Dark Sun won last time out but that followed a mixed run, including consecutive fourths and a runner-up, in the five starts before it. Fresh off 28 days and with today's trip and ground proven, she rates only fifth of six here on our figures.

AI verdict

SR 61 suggests ability but 15/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Calafrio won three starts back and has form over today's trip and going, giving her claims among the dangers here. The concerns are two subsequent fifths and a 189-day absence since that win, leaving obvious questions over her readiness fresh into this.

SR 63 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Lahina Bay is winless in her last five starts, mixing minor-placed thirds with midfield efforts down to sixth, and sits bottom of our figures. Fresh off 19 days with today's trip and going proven, but there is little here to suggest a step forward.

AI verdict

SR 56 suggests ability but 9/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Be An Angel is yet to win in her last five starts but rates well above her official mark on our figures, second only to the selection here. The worry is a yard out of form, managing just a 5% strike this fortnight.

AI verdict

SR 49 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 12/1.

Snooker McCrew won two starts back and has form over today's trip and going in his favour. The major concern is a 683-day absence from the track since, a huge fitness unknown fresh into this.

AI verdict

SR 45 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 18/1.

8/1 14/1 7/1

Gloryous tops our figures here. A third four starts back is the anchor of her form, backed by a runner-up run three starts back. She has since dipped to sixth and eighth in her last two, so the query is whether that shape returns fresh after 12 days.

AI verdict

SR 66 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 16/1.

Pomme Pomme won five starts back. She was runner-up two starts back, form that underpins her rating of 82, with the yard among the in-form 26% this fortnight. A below-par ninth last time and 86 days off the track are the concerns fresh into this.

SR 65 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 16/1.

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

Mayaada was runner-up last time out and has been placed in three of her last six starts, including a win four starts back, and is fresh into this after just 14 days. Proven over today's trip and ground, the only blot is one unplaced effort three starts back.

Oh Yes You Do won last time out and has landed two of her last five starts, with a placed effort three starts back and both trip and ground proven. The blot is a tendency to alternate, finishing fourth twice among those starts, fresh off a 23-day gap.

SR 88 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Silver Lake is winless in her last three starts, following 7th and 6th with only a modest third last time out, and is fresh off a 64-day break. The trainer's strong recent form (29% this fortnight) is the shred of encouragement in an otherwise thin profile.

AI verdict

SR 81 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Zipwire won five starts back and has proven form over today's trip, form that keeps him top of our figures in this field. The worry is a recent slide, finishing 5th and 6th in his last two starts, fresh off a 26-day break.

Three Socks On has been on an upward curve, following an eighth with back-to-back wins and a solid third last time out, arriving fresh off 29 days with today's trip already proven. The blip was a below-par fourth two starts back, but the shape overall reads progressive.

Evening Fades is winless in her last three starts, sandwiching a below-par sixth between two similar fourths, and sits bottom of our figures for this. She does arrive fresh off 24 days with today's trip already proven, but there is little here to inspire confidence.

Shirakawa won last time out having managed only a fourth and two sevenths in the three starts before that, so the form is patchy despite that recent success. Fresh off 36 days with today's trip already proven, the query is whether last time's improvement can be repeated.

SR 72 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

The Lost Sock is yet to score in his last six starts, but a second last time out fits a pattern of sporadic placed efforts, and he rates clear at the top of our figures. Quick to reappear after 9 days, he is the one to beat here.

Charlie Boyo won last time out just 7 days ago, a confident return after a mixed recent stretch, a ninth two back, but a runner-up among those earlier runs. With today's trip proven, the fast turnaround makes him the chief threat to the selection despite sitting third of three on figures.

SR 84 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
