Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Zabriskie Point heads our ratings on 67, but only level with Venetian Romance and a few pounds ahead of Sailor Batt and Dontwaste A Moment, so this looks a tight Class 6 contest rather than a straightforward one. That rating makes him the one to side with over the Wolverhampton seven furlongs, and he is narrowly ahead of the pack behind the top pair. Venetian Romance is the chief danger on identical figures, while Sailor Batt and Dontwaste A Moment, both on 64, sit only three pounds back and can't be dismissed in a 12-runner field. Zabriskie Point gets the vote, though with low confidence.

Mark Loughnane 2/14
Cooramook was second two starts back and again three starts back, but she was unplaced last time out and returns after 89 days off. She has run over today's trip and going and is yet to win in her last six, so 135 lb from stall 1 looks a stiff ask.

Patrick Morris 1/10
Lessay has a mixed profile, with a win three starts back and a fourth two runs ago, but he was eighth last time out and has had 32 days off since. He has run over today's trip and on the going, while our rating of 62 ranks him fifth of 12, so he is a midfield sort with 135 lb from stall 10.

On Key was second last time out, 14 days ago, and has been in the frame in four of his last six, yet he's winless in that spell. He has run over today's trip and going, but 133 lb from stall four and a modest sixth in our ranking hold him back.

Ivan Furtado 2/28
Fresh from a run just 14 days ago, Dontwaste A Moment has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating of 64 puts him fourth of 12 with an official mark of 60 to work from. The main risk is a modest recent run of form, with a fifth last time out and just one win in his last six starts.

Saisons d'Or arrives off a second last time out, a clear step up on a string of sixth and seventh finishes before it, and he has run over today's trip and going. Yet to win in his last six, he carries 132 lb from stall six, while our rating of 60 ranks him eighth of twelve.

Venetian Romance returned a fifth last time out just 21 days ago and has a second four starts back, while she has run over today's trip and going before; our rating of 67 ranks her second of twelve. The risk is that she is winless in her last six and carries 131 lb from draw 7.

Ridger arrives on a two-race winning streak, having won last time out and two starts back, and has run over today's trip and going, but our figures have him eleventh of 12 and 4 lb below his official 58. Carrying 131 lb from stall five, he looks up against it on our numbers.

Sailor Batt arrives fit after 14 days off, fourth last time out, with thirds four and five starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before; our rating of 64 ranks him third of twelve, well clear of his official 56. The risk is that he is winless in his last six and was seventh twice before that last run.

Zabriskie Point is yet to win in his last six, but he was third two starts back and second six back, and he returns fresh after 15 days having run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 67 sits well clear of his official 53, which makes him the one to beat from stall three.

James Owen 9/57
Mini Mac is yet to win in his last six starts and returns after 124 days off, which makes him hard to fancy, though a fourth last time out and a second three starts back show he can get involved, and he has run over today's trip and going. He is ranked tenth of 12 on our figures.

Winless in his last five, Macs Dilemma was a fifth last time out and a seventh two starts back, so he is hard to fancy, ranked ninth of 12 on our figures. He has run over today's trip and going, though, and an official mark of 50 offers some respite from draw 12.

Maury is winless in his last six and hard to fancy, with a seventh and two ninths in that spell, though a second two starts back and a fifth last time out show some improvement. He has run over today's trip and going, and returns after just 12 days from stall two, but our rating has him last of twelve.
