Straight Ahead shaped well when second last time out and has experience of today's trip and conditions, making him a strong threat off 135 lb from stall 7; the risk is that eighth two starts back showed he can lose his way.

SR 77 suggests ability but 7/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Hanney Girl's third three starts back gives her best recent form, though she has been well beaten in her last two, and she returns after 46 days; winless in her last five, she needs to rediscover that level, but her experience over today's trip and going and a rating of 84 mark her as the one to beat.

SR 76 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Winless in his last five starts and ranked ninth of eleven on our figures, Qila is hard to fancy despite returning quickly on just five days' rest; a third last time out and has run over today's trip, but the weight of 131 lb adds another hurdle.

SR 73 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Consistently placed in her last three starts — second, second, and third — Kilfrush Desert arrives here as a strong each-way threat, with distance experience and a rating of 76 suggesting she's ahead of her official mark; the main risk is 56 days off the track.

SR 64 suggests ability but 14/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Ranked bottom of the field on our figures, Rumble Ruby faces a stiff ask, though she does bring distance and going experience and was a winner two starts back, with a third three starts back offering some additional encouragement.

SR 64 suggests ability but 12/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Unplaced last time out and only fourth two starts back, Dragon Spin does bring a win three starts back to the table, and she has experience of today's trip and going; the 128 lb burden and a mid-division draw from stall 11 are the challenges she faces.

SR 48 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 25/1.
Beaten in four of his last five starts, including fifth last time out, Lamlash Bay is ranked near the foot of our figures and is hard to fancy at these weights, though he has run over today's trip and going before and a win two starts back offers a crumb of form.

SR 70 suggests ability but 7/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Winless in his last five starts, Black Missile nevertheless brings distance and going experience to the table, and a rating of 73 suggests he's better than his official mark of 64 implies; the concern is that third last time out remains his recent ceiling.

SR 68 suggests ability but 10/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Twice placed third in his last two starts yet winless in recent starts, Under The Radar has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 70 offers some encouragement — though stall nine and 122 lb are the checks on his claims.

Even weighting across form, market confidence and race-day volatility.
Hanney Girl (SR:76, 11/2) is dropping three class tiers — the single most significant structural advantage in the race — and the market has noticed, shortening 21% since opening. Her Course:W1P1 record at Beverley is decisive on a track that heavily rewards course specialists, and GoingFit:+ confirms she handles today's good-to-firm ground. The tongue-tie application (HG:t) signals connections are sharpening her up, and as Easterby's declared Stable:1 runner she receives the yard's best jockey booking in David Allan. At 11/2 there is genuine value given the class drop and course form combination.
Each-way alternative: Qila.
Main danger: Qila — Qila (SR:73, 6/1) has shortened 19% in the market — matching Hanney Girl's support — ran just 5 days ago suggesting peak fitness, and the tongue-tie application mirrors the same sharpening signal seen on Hanney Girl, making her the most credible threat at a workable each-way price.

Form reads -75399: five consecutive finishes of 9th, 9th, 3rd, 7th and 5th — no win in recent starts and the 9ths suggest she is running below her rating consistently.
46-day absence is the longest layoff in the field; the tongue-tie is a first-time application suggesting connections know something is amiss, not merely a sharpener.
Easterby's yard runs TWO horses today (Stable:1 flag shared with Under The Radar); jockey bookings and stable confidence may be split, and yard strike rate is a modest 9%.
Angel Numbers (SR:77, 7/2) holds a superior speed rating despite the market drifting 46% — that drift points to a horse in sharp form being swerved by informed money, but she still sits higher in the…
