Landed a handicap here last time, getting up by a neck, and clearly handles this course and trip well; three wins in recent starts underline the form and today's ground is fine. First-time hood fitted, but carrying a full weight at the top of the handicap will make it harder to repeat.

Consistent form of 171441 and a fair 6/1 price justify mid-tier appeal, but a 65 Saturday Rating limits confidence.
Pushed very close here last time in first-time blinkers, beaten a neck off this mark — the form is right there and the course holds no fears. Yet to score in recent starts but has left no doubt about the ability, and a repeat of that effort could be enough.

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 58 and uninspiring form of 60-452 limits Havana Mojito's appeal at 11/2.
Two consecutive wins, including a smooth success at Bath last time where the cheekpieces clearly galvanised the form; acts on all going types and has course-and-distance experience. Going for a hat-trick off a competitive mark, but the recent consistency makes the case hard to resist.

Recent form shows back-to-back wins but a Saturday Rating of 68 and 9-9 weight limit upside at 11/4.
Placed second at Lingfield earlier in the season and handles the course and trip on a sound surface; was in fair form prior. Most recently, though, Bear To Dream was ridden to see out the trip and found it all too much, beaten over seven lengths, and needs a stronger pace to aim at.

Saturday Rating of 44, poor form figures of 7842-6, and unfancied 16/1 odds make Bear To Dream a low-confidence selection.
Close up at Brighton last time, beaten three lengths off a 1lb lower mark, and the course and going are familiar; first-time hood fitted and acts over 7f on fast ground. Drawn in stall 12 and yet to score in recent starts — those are the main obstacles.

Zu Run's dismal form of 085692, poor Saturday Rating of 42, and long-shot 16/1 odds offer little confidence.
Good second at Yarmouth last time, beaten one and a half lengths off this mark, represents solid recent evidence and the course and trip are both proven; first-time tongue-tie is an additional angle. Yet to score in recent starts, but the trend is clearly upward.

Solid 11/4 odds and a Saturday Rating of 59 are undermined by inconsistent form figures of 7-0742 at 9-7 weight.
Placed at Lingfield in fair form earlier in the campaign and handles this course and going; first-time visor could be a catalyst. Last time at Bath, though, barely figured at any stage, beaten four lengths, and needs to recapture that earlier promise to get involved.

Amathus combines a lowly Saturday Rating of 46, poor form reading 60-929, and 14/1 odds showing no market confidence.
Has landed a win in recent form and knows this course, trip and going well; effective at 7-8f on a sound surface. The most recent outing was well below that level — beaten ten lengths from off the pace at Leicester — so a significant upturn in form is needed before this one can be taken seriously.

Carrying top weight of 9-5 with a weak Saturday Rating of 46, poor recent form of 3140-8, and dismissed at 11/1 by the market signals limited winning prospects.
Has a win in recent starts and course experience, but the last two outings have both produced big defeats, most recently beaten six lengths here from off the pace; usually held up and the wide draw in stall 10 will not help. Needs to recapture that form sharply.

Long odds of 50/1, poor form figures of -49199, and a low Saturday Rating of 30 confirm Henry Tudor as an outsider with little winning chance.
Top course trainer connected and the stable has a strong record at Brighton; Daley T posted a quarter-length third here most recently, tried in cheekpieces. Inconsistent and yet to score in recent starts, though, and must improve on the figures to be a factor.

A Saturday Rating of 41, weak 536583 form, and 16/1 odds confirm Daley T holds no market confidence.
Has a win to the name in recent form and is effective at 7-8f, but last time out was a near-historic reversal — beaten thirty-five lengths — and that form is extremely hard to look past. Still to prove the ability transfers to turf.

Maury's poor form (59-148), lowly Saturday Rating of 37, and 22/1 odds signal minimal market confidence.
Two placed efforts earlier in the season and acts on a wide range of surfaces; Bated Breeze handles 6-7f and the course is familiar. A well-beaten effort here last time is a concern and a wide draw in stall 11 does not help — needs to recapture earlier form.

Dion Baker owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (38) and market confidence (86). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Carrying top weight of 9-5 with a weak Saturday Rating of 46, poor recent form of 3140-8, and dismissed at 11/1 by the market signals limited winning prospects.
Dion Baker (SR 68, 11/4) is the clear SR leader in this field and his form string 574411 shows back-to-back wins most recently — the strongest recent form line in the race. At 9-9 he shares top weight with Aim For The Bull but his SR of 68 gives him a meaningful edge over the next-best runners. The market has him joint-favourite at 11/4 alongside Prefer The Sister, confirming market confidence, and trainer Michael Wigham has a live contender in form. Good to Firm at Brighton over 6f210y suits an in-form sprinter peaking on a consistent run of results.
Each-way alternative: Aim For The Bull.
Main danger: Prefer The Sister — Prefer The Sister (SR 59, 11/4) is joint-favourite, carries a 2lb weight advantage over Dion Baker at 9-7, and her form figure of 2 last time out suggests she is threatening a win — if she converts that placed effort into a win today she is the most likely horse to beat the selection.
