Bounced back with a handicap success at Newcastle last time, aided by a strong gallop and blinkers; he's effective over today's trip, handles this ground, and the yard is in good form, though he now races off a 6lb higher mark.

Rated 72 with solid recent form (5531) at 4/1, but 10-2 weight limits upside in a competitive handicap.
Quickly back after running fourth at Doncaster yesterday, she pressed on too keenly following her wind operation and was comfortably held; she handles this trip and going, though needs to settle better and is hard to fancy on these terms.

Idyllic's poor form (76-654), low Saturday Rating of 49, and 12/1 odds signal minimal winning prospects.
Third last time despite missing the break and encountering interference, which masked his true ability; he landed a handicap at Hamilton two runs ago off a 4lb lower mark and returns on the same rating, with a strong local jockey/trainer partnership a further plus.

Annandale's consistent recent form (862413) and competitive 9/2 odds justify a mid-tier rating despite carrying 9-8.
Progressive since joining a new yard, she landed a handicap at Musselburgh last time by three lengths off a lower mark, showing further improvement; she handles this trip and going, though returns 7lb higher and faces a tougher field.

Recent form of 011 is promising, but a 9-5 weight burden and 63 Saturday Rating limit confidence despite fair 13/8 odds.
Finished down the field at Hamilton last time on his return to the Flat, and his form in both codes has been moderate of late; he handles the trip and going here, but needs a significant upturn to factor.

✦AI verdict
Outsider at 66/1 with a Saturday Rating of just 29 and poor form figures of 9435/7 offer no winning case.
Fourth here last time, caught behind a front-runner who dominated throughout; she has solid course credentials, her trainer is in excellent form at this venue, and she stays well, though the ground may not have quite enough give for her at its best.

✦AI verdict
Aighear's modest Saturday Rating of 48 and 9/1 market position signal limited winning prospects despite consistent form.
Third here last time when beaten just 2½ lengths off a higher mark, he tends to travel prominently and handles this trip and ground well; fitted with tongue-tie and blinkers for the first time now, he's yet to score in recent starts but remains a leading danger on our figures.

✦AI verdict
Ebony Maw's Saturday Rating of just 46, 12/1 odds, and poor form of 39-743 mark this as a weak contender.
Consistent in recent starts but yet to score, she chased the pace too eagerly at Doncaster last time and finished second beaten 16 lengths; she handles this trip and goes on various surfaces, but sits towards the lower end of our rankings here.

✦AI verdict
Consistent form of 434222 and a competitive 6/1 market price are undermined by a modest Saturday Rating of 65 and 8-9 weight.
Unplaced most recently at Wolverhampton, where he raced too keenly and faded abruptly; he was also pulled up on his penultimate outing, wears a first-time tongue-tie here, and today's trip looks far beyond his optimum, making him hard to recommend.

Is She Now (SR:63, 13/8) carries a light 9-5 and arrives on the back of back-to-back wins (Form:49-011), showing a sharp upturn in form that justifies the 19% market move in. GoingFit:+ confirms she handles today's good ground, and at 9-5 she is the second-lightest of the realistic contenders — a meaningful advantage over Elemental Eye (10-2) and Annandale (9-8). The step up in class (ClassMv:↑1) is the one flag, but a horse that has won twice consecutively entering peak form is exactly the profile that handles a class rise; the market clearly agrees given the move from opening price to 13/8.
Each-way alternative: Elemental Eye.
Main danger: Elemental Eye — Elemental Eye (SR:72, 4/1) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin, and although carrying top-weight 10-2 and running off a mark 6lb above his last win, a form line of 7-5531 shows consistent placing and he commands the SR standings — if he handles the untested distance and going, raw ability could dominate.
