Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Club Manager heads our ratings on 115, and that is enough to make him the one to beat in this 14-runner contest over 17 furlongs on soft ground. He is only narrowly ahead of Crowsatedappletart on 114, so this is no formality, but the extra pound and his place at the top of the list give him the edge. River Vale, five pounds behind on 110, and Qaasid on 107 are the other dangers, and both look to have a little to find. Club Manager is the selection.

Club Manager arrives with a fourth last time out and a second two starts back, fresh enough after 24 days, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Yet to win in recent starts and carrying 166 lb, but our rating of 115 puts him top of the 14 and the one to beat.

River Vale won last time out and has run over today's trip and on this going, while a fourth two starts back backs that up for a gelding carrying 164 lb. The main risk is a 202-day absence, which leaves fitness a question.

Quick back-up run after a sixth last time out is a slight concern, but Crowsatedappletart has run over today's trip and going, won five starts back, and our rating of 114 ranks him second of 14, well clear of his official 102. The main risk is 158 lb on a patchy recent run.

Cathryns Ruby has been consistent, with a third two starts back and another third three starts back, but she is winless in her last five and was only sixth last time out. A 235-day layoff and 157 lb are concerns, though she has run over today's trip and going.

Albatala is yet to win in her last five starts, though she finished second last time out and has two other runner-up efforts in that spell, but a pulled up and an unplaced run in between make her hard to trust. She has run over today's trip, but 155 lb is a big burden, and our rating of 98 ranks her 12th of 14.

Chosen Shant has been well held since her win five starts back, with a third three starts back the best of her last three runs, and she carries 153 lb, which makes her hard to fancy. She is fresh enough after 14 days and has run over today's trip and going, but our figures rank her 11th of 14.

Ian Patrick Donoghue 0/3
Land Of Punt has run over today's trip and going and was third twice before a sixth and an eighth last time out, so he is yet to win in recent starts and on a downward curve. Fitness is no issue after 24 days, but 151 lb is a big burden, though our rating of 107 sits well above his official 95.

Prince Inger returns after 443 days off, having finished seventh last time out and in a seventh and a fifth in his previous runs, and he is yet to win in his last four starts. He has run over today's trip and our rating of 101 sits above his official 95, but the long layoff, 151 lb and a yard 0/23 recently temper the appeal.

You Done Well has been pulled up in two of his last three outings, though a sixth two starts back and a pair of thirds before that show he has some ability. He has run over today's trip and going, but he is yet to win in recent form and carries 148 lb off 92.

Esticky End won two starts back and three starts back, but he was unplaced last time out and has just had a quick turnaround, only six days ago. Our rating has him an outsider, and 143 lb off an official 87 is a tall order, though he has run over today's trip.

Arctic Piper bounced back with a third last time out, but she is winless in her last five and had a ninth two starts back, a ninth four back and a fall five back. Quick back up after 12 days and has run over this trip and going, yet 140 lb is a big ask and our figures rank her last of 14.
