Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Loulou Madrik is the clear call here, with our rating of 106 putting him nine pounds ahead of Balking on 97, a decent margin in a Class 4 over two and a half miles. That gap should tell over the extended trip on good ground against a field where nothing else is rated within nine pounds of him. Balking and Humble Jumble (96) are the most likely to make it competitive, while Rule Me In (93) is another who could take a hand if the principal fluffs his lines. Loulou Madrik is the selection.

Loulou Madrik is our top-rated runner, having made the frame twice in his last five, including a second two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before. Fresh enough after 17 days, he is yet to win in that spell, and his 7th last time out is the one blemish, though 167 lb is a sizeable burden.

Conor O'Farrell
Dianne Sayer 1/6
Balking showed enough with a fourth last time out, and a second three starts back shows he can go close, while he has run over today's trip and going before. The risk is a 197-day absence, and he is yet to win in his last four starts, carrying 163 lb.

Humble Jumble has twice finished third in his last five, including two starts back, and has run over today's trip, while our rating ranks him third of seven. The risk is a 186-day absence and a pulled-up run last time out, with 162 lb to carry.

Jamie Hamilton
Mark Walford 1/18
Winless in his last five, Empty Nest was third last time out but has been off for 199 days, and carrying 150 lb off an official mark of 90 is a big ask. He has run over today's trip and going, but our figures rank him sixth of seven.

Uptown Harry pulled up last time out and has been off 187 days since, though he was a fourth two starts back and a third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 150 lb off 90, he looks a midfield sort, ranked fifth of seven by our rating.

Christian Williams 3/9
Rule Me In arrives in sound shape after a second last time out, and he has run over today's trip and on this going, while our rating of 93 puts him fourth of seven. The main risk is that he is yet to win in his last five starts and carries 146 lb off 86.

Micky Hammond 1/7
Aill Dubh signed off with a third last time out, but he's 43 days since that run and has managed just one win in his last five starts, a victory three starts back. He has run over today's trip and going and has only 142 lb to carry, yet our rating of 71 sits below his official 75 and ranks him last of seven.
