East Air Conditioning Handicap Stakes

Braes Of Doune holds the highest rating in this field and has run over today's trip and going, while 18 days gives him a fresh but race-fit look from stall three; the concern is he's winless in his last five starts, with a pair of sixths most recently.

Consecutive seconds two and three starts back show King Sharja has the class to threaten here, and his experience over today's trip and going is a clear asset at 135 lb from stall six; yet to land it in recent starts, and that unplaced effort last time is the note of caution.

Winless in her last five starts with only a single runner-up finish to show, April Diamond is hard to fancy stepping back in after an unplaced effort 25 days ago; she has run over today's trip and going, and stall two is her lot at 135 lb.

Sanditon showed his best when winning four starts back, and he arrives here on a handy 17-day turnaround with experience of today's trip and conditions. The concern is his inconsistency, with fifth last time out following a seventh two starts back.

Winless in his last five starts, Monhammer does at least bring distance and going experience to the table, and a second three starts back shows he can threaten — but a sixth last time out and our rating sitting above his official mark of 48 suggest he faces a stiff ask here.
