Shamacid arrives on the back of a third and a second in his last six starts that underline his ability to mix it at this level, and he has experience of today's trip and going; carrying 138 lb from stall four, he is yet to win in recent starts but rates the one to beat on our figures.

Consistent if not spectacular, On Key has been placed in five of his last six starts and gets into the race off a reasonable weight, though his speed figure of 56 leaves him with something to find on ratings against the top of the field.

Winless in his last five starts, Cy Twombly nonetheless catches the eye with experience over today's trip and going, a 27-day freshener, and a rating of 62 that suggests he's better than his official mark — the risk is that his recent form has been patchy at best.

Desiderata landed a winner last time out and has run over today's trip and going, but 130 days off the track is a fitness concern, and his speed rating of 53 leaves him with ground to find on the best of these from stall two off 134 lb.

Manton Road arrives on a quick turnaround just six days after finishing fifth, and ranked ninth of twelve on our figures it is hard to make a case for him at these weights; he has run over today's trip and going before, and a win two starts back offers slim encouragement.
