Lens Self Storage Handicap Stakes

Clansman landed a win two starts back and has experience of both today's trip and going, but a below-par effort last time tempers expectations, and he carries 131 lb off a rating of 71.

Inappropriate has been knocking on the door, finishing second last time out and second four starts back, with going experience in his favour and a race-fit 18-day turnaround lending further appeal; the concern is he remains winless in his last five starts.

Teofimo posted a second three starts back on today's going, and our rating has him as the one to beat in this field — but he's winless in his last four starts and back-to-back eighths and sevenths demand respect for those shortcomings.

Placed second last time out and third four starts back, Arrange has shown she can hit the frame and her experience over today's trip and going is a plus; winless in her last five starts is the caveat, but at 129 lb she looks an interesting each-way proposition fresh off a 39-day break.

Simple Star has run over today's trip and going, shaped with promise when second two starts back, and at 128 lb steps out on a snappy 18-day turnaround with his rating of 73 giving him a competitive edge — though he remains yet to win in recent starts.
