Comfortably the slowest on the clock in this field, and recent form has been in keeping with that — two finishes of sixth in her last six starts. Been a slow starter recently too, which compounds an already tough task from a handicap mark. Her trainer's 13% record here is modest. Very little in her favour on today's evidence.

Drawn in the strongest trap at this grade, winning more than one in five, and shows early pace which should let him use it. Recent form has been steady, with two seconds in his last six starts but nothing better. His trainer's 13% record here is on the light side. The draw is his main asset against a clock that puts him near the back of this field.

Won last time out, a step in the right direction after a run of modest finishes before that. Shows early pace and has one of the better first-bend figures in the field. Her trainer's 17% record here is solid. Not among the fastest on the clock, but the recent win and running style keep her in the picture.

Third fastest in the field, with a win from a lower grade earlier in this sequence of six starts, though results have cooled since. Been a slow starter of late, an awkward trait given the black jacket is the weakest draw at this grade, winning barely one in nine. His trainer's 22% strike rate here, from a small sample, is the best in the race. The trainer figure is the strongest thing in his favour.

Second fastest in the field on the clock and shares the pick's trainer, who has the best strike rate of any yard in these conditions at 19%. Shows early pace and her last-time run matched her own best exactly, a sign she's in good order right now. Recent grades have fluctuated, including a well-beaten sixth two starts back. A genuine each-way threat given the speed and trainer form on offer.
