Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Crestofdistinction heads our ratings on 105, level with Fine Interview and three pounds clear of Flash Harry, which is enough of an edge to make him the one to beat in this big 22-runner Doncaster sprint. The race is run over six furlongs on soft ground, and he lines up as the joint-strongest on our figures. Fine Interview is the chief threat on identical figures, while Flash Harry and Fandom are the other dangers, though both are rated lower. Crestofdistinction looks the right one to side with.
Runners
Rossa Ryan
Clive Cox 1/9
Flash Harry arrives in good heart, third last time out and a winner two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before; our rating of 102 ranks him third of 22. The one concern is a 49-day layoff, with 135 lb to carry from stall 14.

Crestofdistinction comes into this on the back of a second last time out, fresh after 27 days, and has run over today's trip and going before. Our top-rated runner at 105 looks the one to beat, though he is yet to win in his last five starts.

Fandom has been consistent, finishing second two starts back and third in two of his last six, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before. Our rating ranks him fourth of 22, but he is yet to win in that spell and was only sixth last time out, 36 days ago.

Hamad Al Jehani 1/4
Fine Interview has run over today's trip and going before and returns just 15 days after a ninth last time out, while our rating of 105 ranks him second of 22 against an official 95. The risk is a poor recent run of form, with just one win six starts back, and 130 lb to carry from stall 13.

Oisin Orr
Bryan Smart 0/7
Three wins in his last six starts, including a win two starts back, is a solid base, though he was only fifth last time out, and he's fresh enough after 15 days. He has run over today's trip and going, but 129 lb off an official 94 and a ranking of 11 of 22 on our figures make him a midfielder.

Back-to-back winners last time out and two starts back, so the form is hot, but our figures rank him 20th of 22 at 86 against an official 89, and he has only run over today's trip before. Fit after 19 days, he carries 124 lb from draw 20.

So Darn Hot is yet to win in his last six, though a third two starts back shows he can reach the frame, and he has run over today's trip and going. A 42-day break and a 124 lb burden from stall 18 temper enthusiasm, though our rating of 94 sits above his official 89.

Grand Traverse is winless in his last five, finishing unplaced last time, a fifth two starts back, then a sixth three starts back, so he is hard to fancy. He has run over today's trip and is back quickly after nine days, but 124 lb from draw 3 looks a big ask.
