Sat in trap four having placed third in this exact race and grade last time out, beaten under three lengths. The clock is the concern - his recorded times are the slowest of the sprint-proven runners here, and his trainer has managed only 15% in these conditions from a large sample of 179 runs. There is a note of encouragement from a recent trial that clocked quicker than his race average, hinting at a touch of improvement in the background, and he does have solid course form generally. On what he's shown in his actual races, though, this looks a tough one to win from the current level.

Races consistently wide from the outer traps and it shows up in the same way race after race - always giving up a length or two on the way round. Placed in each of her last two starts but has never gone on with it from behind, and her trainer's record in these conditions sits below average at 15% from 179 runs. The clock has her mid-pack among the sprint-experienced runners, quicker than Flosses Rolex but some way behind the top two on both time and rating. Others in this field have the stronger claims tonight.
