Brunello Breeze has run over today's trip and going, and our rating ranks him highest in this field — yet winless in his last five starts and returning after 146 days, the fitness query looms as the key risk to go with his uninspiring recent figures.

Yet to score in her last six starts, On The Bubble does bring distance and going experience to the table, and a return just 15 days ago suggests she's fit — but a recent unplaced effort and modest official rating of 50 leave plenty to prove at this level.

Winless in her last three starts — all eighths or a ninth — Halimede arrives after a 47-day break and our rating of 48 suggests she faces a stiff ask against this field, though a trainer firing at 32% over the past fortnight offers a sliver of hope.

Hansteen shaped with real promise when runner-up last time out, and a winner two starts back, he arrives in good heart just 12 days on. He has run over today's trip and going before, and a rating of 68 makes him our pick against a strong field.

Muhib has been placed in four of his last six starts — second last time out, and thirds two and three starts back — giving him a strong claims case at a mark of 46, though he remains yet to win in recent starts and that habit of running into a placing rather than forcing the issue is the chief concern.
