City Of God

Age 4 · 10-0

815858

James Glennon 4%

Michael Attwater 9%

10-0

18/1 22/1 16/1

City Of God showed his worth with a win within his last six starts and returns here on 21 days' rest with both distance and going experience in his favour; the concern is that his last two runs have yielded an eighth and a fifth, suggesting he may need to find more consistency.

AI verdict

SR 57 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 18/1.

Prince Rasam

6266-2

Toby Moore(7) 11%

Gary & Josh Moore 11%

9-12

2/1 21/13 32/17

Prince Rasam caught the eye with a second last time out and has run over today's trip and going, giving him claims here off a mark of 68, but the 99-day absence and a winless run in his last five starts make him hard to trust fully.

AI verdict

SR 75 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

A La Noche

Age 5 · 9-11

656/9

Oliver Hoodless(7) 19%

Oliver Cole 11%

9-11

6/1 9/2 11/2

A La Noche has course-relevant experience over this trip and ground, and our rating of 73 puts him right at the head of this field as the second-ranked runner; yet to score in his last four starts, however, and connections will need more from him here.

AI verdict

SR 70 suggests ability but 5/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

9-10

11/2 6/1 11/2

Thiscouldbefun won two starts back and has run over today's trip and going, but a fourth last time out and a rank of sixth of eight on our ratings suggest she faces a stiff task from stall eight off 136 lb.

AI verdict

SR 64 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Special Ghaiyyath

Age 4 · 9-8

689747

Joe Bradnam 6%

P. Charalambous & J. Clutterbuck 7%

9-8

20/1 14/1 20/1

Yet to score in recent starts, Special Ghaiyyath at least returns fit on 20 days' rest, has experience of today's trip and conditions, and our rating of 72 puts him ahead of his official mark, making him of interest from stall one despite a modest recent run of form.

AI verdict

SR 48 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 20/1.

Decalogue

Age 3 · 9-8

86-843

Alfie Redman(5) 8%

Jamie Osborne 12%

9-8

4/1 11/4 7/2

Winless in his last five starts and ranked seventh of eight on our figures, Decalogue faces a stiff task, though he steps out from draw 3 carrying 134 lb having run over today's trip before, and that third last time out at least hints at some residual form.

AI verdict

SR 70 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Virtue Patience

Age 4 · 9-7

5-3647

Charlie Tucker(7) 10%

Amanda Perrett 9%

9-7

9/2 10/3 9/2

Winless in his last five starts and returning after a 94-day absence, Virtue Patience has at least run over today's trip before, though a seventh last time out does little to inspire confidence; our rating of 69 suggests some latent ability, but consistency remains the obvious concern.

AI verdict

SR 68 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Musashi

Age 3 · 9-4

00-220

Amy Tucker 0%

David Evans 13%

9-4

22/1 7/1 22/1

Winless in his last five starts and ranked last on our figures, Musashi faces a stiff task, though consecutive second-place finishes two and three starts back show some ability, and he has experience over today's distance and going from stall 2 carrying 130 lb after a 108-day absence.

AI verdict

SR 55 suggests ability but 14/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

James Owen 18%

9-2

18/1 11/1 18/1

Acclamation Star's second one start back reads as a clear marker of ability, and her win earlier in this run of starts shows she can find the line; our rating of 94 supports her place among the principals. The concern is that she has finished seventh on her latest appearance.

Harlequin Sky has shown glimpses, with a third three starts back, yet she remains winless in her last five outings and that sixth two starts back clouds the picture; experience over today's trip and a 26-day freshener give her every chance from stall two at 128 lb.

Havana Pusey shaped well last time, finishing second, and a winner in recent starts, she has previously handled today's conditions having run over this trip and going before; carrying 140 lb from stall one is the factor to weigh against her.

Winless in her last five starts, Betty Clover nonetheless catches the eye as the top-rated runner in this field, and her experience over today's trip and going counts in her favour; a sixth last time out is the obvious reservation, but she has 104 reasons to outrun that effort from stall nine off 137 lb.

Cindy Lou Who has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 97 suggests she retains considerably more ability than her official mark of 84 implies, making her a lively threat from stall ten carrying 130 lb; the main concern is her winless run in recent starts.

SR 75 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 16/1.

A winner last time out and with experience of today's trip and going, Angel Shared arrives in good nick on just 13 days' rest, though her form in the five starts prior was patchy, including a ninth two starts back, and she faces ten rivals carrying 125 lb from stall four.

AI verdict

SR 78 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Boyfriend shaped well last time out, finishing second, and was a winner three starts back — he arrives here after 33 days off with fitness in hand, has run over today's trip, and carries 142 lb from stall eight. The trainer's current run of form is a note of caution.

Winless in his last five starts, One Smack Mac nevertheless heads the field on our ratings and returns after a 36-day break with experience over today's trip, carrying 142 lb from stall five; the risk is that his recent form has been consistently disappointing.

AI verdict

SR 61 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 150/1.

Principality won two starts back and has experience of today's trip and conditions, giving him a solid platform at 141 lb from stall four; the worry is a return to form just four days ago leaves his stamina for a quick turnaround open to question.

Skipper won four starts back but has since struggled, finishing unplaced, ninth, and sixth in his last three outings; the step back to today's trip brings experience if not guaranteed improvement, and 138 lb from stall one adds further ballast to his claims.

AI verdict

SR 59 suggests ability but 50/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Point of Contact landed a win three starts back and returns 23 days later in solid shape, with experience over today's trip and our rating of 94 lending him strong claims from stall 6 carrying 137 lb; the fourth last time out, however, is the main caution.

Looka won three starts back but has posted back-to-back fifths since, leaving his recent form mixed; he has run over today's trip and returns after a 26-day break off 135 lb from stall 11, with our rating of 92 offering mild encouragement without making him a standout.

Time Loop showed useful form when second four starts back and a winner five starts back, and she has run over today's trip, but a 75-day absence and two fourth-place finishes among recent starts suggest she is vulnerable against fresher rivals.

Ranked bottom but one on our figures and carrying 133 lb from stall 10, Shipbourne is hard to fancy despite two wins in his last four starts; the unplaced effort last time and 56 days off compound the concerns, though he has run over today's trip before.

Ranked ninth of eleven on our figures, Zoffandia makes little appeal off an 83-day absence and with two sevenths in his last three starts; the second two starts back offers a crumb of comfort, as does experience over today's trip, but he faces a stiff task from stall seven carrying 130 lb.

Redbud Sixteen has won twice in her last five starts, with back-to-back victories two and three starts back, and has run over today's trip; drawn in stall 3 carrying 142 lb, the main query is whether a 62-day absence has left her short of peak sharpness.

Winless in her last five starts, Zgharta nonetheless rates well clear of her rivals on our figures and has run over today's trip and going, while fourth two starts back hints at latent ability that a 34-day freshener may help unlock.

Third last time out, Lucky Camino returns on a sharp 15-day turnaround with experience of today's going and a rating of 88 that marks him down as a leading threat from stall 5; the main risk is that he finds one too good again.

Chapter shaped well when second two starts back and got off the mark last time three starts back, so there is plenty of recent encouragement; he has experience over today's trip and going, carries 131 lb from stall one, and his rating of 88 marks him as a leading threat, though that seventh last time out is the form to oppose.

A well-beaten eighth last time out makes Leonardo Blu hard to fancy, ranked sixth of seven on our figures, and his speed rating of 75 underlines the concern; the win three starts back offers some hope, but he needs to find significant improvement here.
