Green Team won two starts back and has experience of both today's trip and going conditions, giving him a solid foundation here; carrying 142 lb after 49 days off is the main query.

Chesneys Charm has run over today's trip and going, and his third two starts back shows he can threaten at this level; rated 73 and ranked second of twelve here, he shapes as a clear danger, though his recent pattern of out-of-the-frame finishes is the concern.

Rain Cap arrives in fair shape on 18 days' rest, holding experience over today's trip and going, and his third two starts back offers a crumb of encouragement; however, he remains winless in his last six starts and faces a stiff task from stall nine carrying 130 lb.
