Kodi Lion looks our pick on profile: he won two starts back, followed with a fifth last time out, and returns fresh after 26 days having run over today's trip. Carrying 139 lb from draw 2 is the one query, but our rating of 98 keeps him firmly in the picture.

SR 87 suggests ability but 9/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
One Smack Mac is winless in his last five and was unplaced last time out, but our rating of 98 puts him top of an 18-runner field, and he has run over today's trip before off an official mark of 89. The main risk is that the recent form offers little encouragement.

God of War is consistent, finishing fourth last time out and fourth again two starts back, and our rating of 95 ranks him fourth of 18 while he has run over today's trip and going. The risk is that he's yet to win in his last six, so he may find one or two better finishers again.

Sergeant Wilko comes here fresh from a second last time out just eight days ago, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before; our rating of 96 ranks him third of 18. The risk is a patchy record, with an eighth and a ninth in his last six runs and yet to win in that spell.

Kisskodi arrives after a fifth last time out and an eighth before that, though he did win three starts back and has run over today's trip and going. A 43-day break and a midfield ranking of tenth of 18 on our rating temper the appeal from draw 7 under 133 lb.

Flight Control (SR 98, 9/2) carries the highest Saturday Rating in the field by a clear margin and steps down a class (ClassMv:↓1), making this a more accessible race than its recent campaign. The market has backed it in 17% since opening, reflecting real money confidence. Rossa Ryan (18% career strike rate from 2,951 rides) is the standout jockey booking in the race, and proven distance fit (DistFit:+) at 7f strengthens the case. The GoingFit:? is the one uncertainty, but the class drop plus superior ability make it the most complete case in the field.
Each-way alternative: God of War.
Main danger: God of War — God of War (SR 89, 5/1) has been backed in a massive 39% since opening — the most significant market move in the race — drops 7lb below its last winning mark (MarkMv:-7) and Tom Clover's yard runs at 17%, making it the most dangerous opponent to Flight Control despite its DistFit:- flag.
