11/8 8/11 5/4
Limerick Leader arrives in cracking form, a winner last time out, a second two starts back, and a winner three and four starts back, with three wins in his last six, fresh from a run 15 days ago and with experience of today's trip and going. The main risk is the 160 lb he carries, with our rating placing him third of three.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 11-6 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Axel Bleue brings solid recent form, with two wins in his last six starts and a fourth last time out, and he has run on today's going before. The main risk is the 159 lb he carries, a stiff burden that could blunt him.

Four Springs counts two wins in his last five starts, a second two starts back and a third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. The main risk is a 220-day absence and a pulled-up effort last time out, with 168 lb to carry.
AI verdict

SR 120 backed by market confidence at 15/8 — a genuine contender.

Cheesy Icon has been in the frame in his last two, third last time out and a second two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. A 290-day absence is the one reservation, though our rating of 117, third of six, gives him a tentative chance off 166 lb.

Without a win in his last five, Marche d'Aligre still shows a pair of seconds and a third in that spell, has run over today's trip and going, and our top-ranked runner of six on 122 against an official 116 is a leading danger. The risk is a 192-day absence and 166 lb on his back.

Jamada's recent form reads well, with a third last time out, a winner two starts back and a third three starts back, but 151 days off is a long absence and he carries 158 lb. He has run over today's trip and going, yet our figures rank him fifth of six.

Ask A Sainte has been beaten in his last two, a seventh last time out and a fourth two starts back, with a pulled up before that, so he is hard to fancy at the bottom of our ranking. On the plus side, he has run over today's trip and going, is back quickly after nine days, and won five starts back.

Lady Kara arrives in good heart, second last time out and second two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going before. Back out just six days later, the main risk is whether she's fresh enough off 155 lb, though our rating of 112 backs her as a leading threat.

SP FCST 3/1
Three wins in his last five starts is a genuine plus, and he's fit after a run 10 days ago, but a fifth last time out and a 111 rating that ranks him last of five make him hard to fancy, especially carrying 169 lb off an official 116.

Our rating of 118 sits well clear of his official 108, though he carries 161 lb, and the main risk is that he remains yet to win in his last six.

Chase The Status has a solid profile, having run over today's trip and on this going, and a third two starts back shows he can get involved, while 154 lb and a sixth last time out are the concerns. Our rating has him second of four, though he remains winless in his last three and the weight is the main risk.

He is yet to win in that spell and returns after 100 days, but our rating of 107 makes him the one to beat in this field of four.

Fourth last time out and a third three starts back give Pippin's Legend a solid recent profile, and he has run on today's going before, carrying 166 lb off a mark of 94. The main risk is a 196-day absence, so fitness is the question.
