Who Is Alice was runner-up five starts back but has since faded, no better than sixth last time. She still ranks second on our rating at 65, with today's trip and going already proven to suit.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 50, poor form figures of 29-096, and weak 14/1 odds signal minimal winning prospects under 9-9.

Grand Vista has been fairly consistent, fourth or fifth in three of his last four starts, though unplaced last time out and still without a win in that run. Our rating of 61 keeps him a leading danger, with today's trip and going suiting him.
AI verdict

Low Saturday Rating of 54, double-digit odds of 10/1, and poor recent form of 45-50 make Grand Vista an unconvincing bet365 Handicap contender.

Luna Beaux tops our rating at 65 with today's trip and going already covered, the clearest claim on figures. Her only win came furthest back in this sequence and she has been no better than fourth since, but the profile makes her the one to beat.
AI verdict

Form figures of 159445 and a Saturday Rating of 61 limit confidence despite fair 4/1 odds and manageable weight.

Musical Soldier won four starts back, with a runner-up effort since, giving him leading-danger claims on our rating of 58 with today's trip and going proven. He was unplaced last time, though, which tempers the case built on that earlier form.
AI verdict

Rated 63 with inconsistent form (671520) and carrying 9-4 at 6/1 limits confidence to a mid-tier three-star rating.

Escape Magic won last time out, but that success came 43 days ago after a modest run of finishes that included an unplaced effort. She is only fifth of six on our rating at 56, hard to fancy despite that pleasing final piece of form.
AI verdict

Rated 66 with top weight of 9-3, Escape Magic's strong 760-1 form is offset by short 5/6 odds offering limited value.

Ken Brulee won four starts back but has been workmanlike since, third last time out having also finished fourth and seventh, and sits bottom of this field on our rating of 54. First-time cheekpieces add a slight variable to an otherwise modest profile.
AI verdict

Rated just 57 with inconsistent form (-01743) and unfancied at 17/2, Ken Brulee carries 9-1 weight without the market confidence to justify support.

Escape Magic
Confidence: Medium

Escape Magic (SR:66, 5/6) holds the highest Saturday Rating in the field by 3 points over Musical Soldier and carries a favourable 9-3, giving it a weight edge over Who Is Alice (9-9) and Luna Beaux (9-5) on a relative SR basis. The form string 760-1 shows a last-time-out win, and the trainer Owen Burrows (18% strike rate, the standout yard in the field) booking Callum Rodriguez (17% strike rate) is a strong dual-signal from connections who clearly expect this horse to perform. The 43-day break is the one concern, but Burrows' high-percentage operation rarely runs horses into competitive handicaps unless fit and ready. Musical Soldier's MarkMv:+5 means it faces a 5lb higher mark than when last winning, which makes it a tougher task. Each-way alternative: Luna Beaux. Main danger: Luna Beaux — Luna Beaux (SR:61, 4/1) is running off a mark 3lb lower than last win (MarkMv:-3), carries the lightest weight among shortlisted runners at 9-5, and Finley Marsh's 11% strike rate is the best jockey figure outside of the Rodriguez/Burrows combination, giving it a live each-way chance at the price.
