Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Burdett Road heads our figures on 149, and while the gap is only narrow, that is enough to make him the pick in a field where the top end looks tightly packed. Rubaud is just a pound behind on 148 and looks the chief danger, with Golden Ace on 146 and Wilful on 142 also firmly in the picture over this 17f trip. Mirabad on 140 is not far off that group, but the bottom three are rated a fair way below the leading quartet and look up against it. Burdett Road gets the nod as the best-rated runner, though this is far from a one-horse race.

Sandy Thomson 0/5
Dedicated Hero arrives on a two-race winning streak, having won last time out and two starts back, though he was pulled up and unseated before that and returns after 187 days off. He has run over today's trip, but 162 lb is a hefty burden, and our rating of 129 ranks him sixth of eight.

Jonathan Burke
James Owen 5/45
Burdett Road has been in the frame in each of his last four starts, finishing third last time out, then second three starts back and second again four starts back, and he has run over today's trip before. Our top-rated runner at 28 days since his last outing, he is yet to win in that spell, but he is the one to beat despite carrying 156 lb.

Brian Hughes
James Owen 5/45
Hamlet's Night is hard to fancy, unplaced in two of his last three outings and yet to win in his last five starts, with a fifth three starts back and a second five starts back his best finishes. He has run over today's trip and is fresh from 13 days ago, but 156 lb and our seventh-of-eight ranking leave plenty to find.

Inner Success has run well lately, a second last time out and a winner two starts back, but he's been off for 66 days, the yard is cold at 2/39 in the last 14 days, and he carries 156 lb off 126. Our rating of 109 ranks him last of eight.

Harry Skelton
Dan Skelton 23/86
Mirabad won two starts back and was second in the two runs before that, but he unseated last time out and returns from 180 days off, so fitness and reliability are the questions. He has run over today's trip, carries 156 lb off 142, and our rating of 140 leaves him fifth of eight.

Golden Ace booked a second last time out and has been in the first five in each of her last five starts, including a win five starts back, while she has run over today's trip. The one concern is a 174-day absence, with 155 lb to carry too.
