Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Wodao is our selection here, and his progressive profile is the reason to side with him over King's Call, who is only three pounds better on our figures at 76 against his 73. A rating gap that small is easily overturned by a horse still on the upgrade, and Wodao looks the one with more improvement to come over this 6f on good ground. King's Call is the obvious danger as the top-rated runner, while Mr Cool and Ingleby Archie, both on 72, sit only a pound behind our pick and cannot be dismissed in a competitive 13-runner Class 5. Wodao gets the nod on his upward trajectory.

Unplaced in each of his last five starts, King's Call has run over today's trip and on this going and returns fresh after 20 days; our rating of 76 ranks him top of 13, but the main risk is that he is yet to show any recent form.

Callum Shepherd
Charlie Johnston 5/48
Mr Cool arrives fit after a second last time out ten days ago, with two wins in his last six starts and a third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and on the going before. Carrying 138 lb from stall 12, the main risk is that weight, which leaves him little room for error.

Adrian Nicholls 0/3
Ingleby Archie arrives fresh from a second last time out just 15 days ago, and he has run over today's trip and going before, so he is a leading threat from stall one. The main risk is consistency, as a seventh and an eighth sit in his last four runs.

Sugar Baby has been out of the frame lately, unplaced last time out, a fifth two starts back, and a seventh three starts back, though he did win five starts back and has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 135 lb from stall four after 31 days off, he's sixth of 13 on our rating of 67.

P. J. McDonald
Iain Jardine 6/28
You Will See has slipped from a second four starts back to a seventh last time out, and he is winless in his last four, which makes him hard to fancy on our figures. He has run over today's trip and going and is fresh enough after 20 days, but carrying 134 lb from stall eight, he rates tenth of 13 by our numbers.

Joanna Mason
Michael & David Easterby 3/26
Bravo Hotel was fourth last time out, and he has been placed in two of his last five, a third four starts back and another third five back, though he is yet to win in that spell. He has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 68 ranks him fifth of 13, but 133 lb from stall 7 leaves little margin.

Steph Hollinshead 1/10
Wodao has been running into mid-field finishes, a sixth last time out and a fifth five starts back, but he's fresh after 32 days off and has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 73 sits well clear of his official 62, which makes him our pick off 130 lb, though he is yet to win in his last five.

Dougie Costello

Taygar is winless in her last six, though a second two starts back shows she can still go close, and she has run over today's trip and going before. Back in just four days, with the yard 0/29 lately, she's a midfield type from draw 2 off 129 lb.

Kevin Stott
Grant Tuer 0/9
Fifth last time out and a winner two starts back, Showtime Mahomes is fit enough after 11 days and has run over today's trip and going, but a single win in his last six starts and 129 lb from stall 11 temper enthusiasm; our rating of 65 ranks him eighth of 13.

George Wood
Julie Camacho 0/21
Mayo County is hard to fancy, ranked 11 of 13 on our figures and with a trainer 0/21 in the last 14 days, though two thirds in her last two starts and a win five starts back show she's not hopeless. She has run over today's trip and going, and returns after 14 days.

Run This Way arrives in solid recent form, second last time out and with a win six starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going before. Fresh enough after 20 days, she's held back by a sixth two starts back and a seventh-ranked rating of 66 in a field of 13.

Peter Niven 1/4
Hurstwood won two starts back and three starts back before a fourth last time out, and he has run over today's trip and going, but our figures rank him 12th of 13. Carrying 125 lb from draw 6 after 20 days off, he looks short of the speed to make an impact.

Duran Fentiman
Tim Easterby 4/72
Hares Bredth is winless in his last six, finishing sixth last time out and no better than a third four starts back, so he is hard to fancy at the foot of our ranking. He has run over today's trip and going and is back quickly after six days, but that is thin support.
