Tote Guarantee, Never Beaten By SP Claiming Hurdle

Tassarolo boasts two wins in his last five starts, including a victory three starts back, and returns just 11 days later with experience of today's distance and going in his favour; the main risk is that he was unplaced two starts back and could only manage fourth last time out.

Shaped with promise when second last time out, and Jackson Lamb returns on a quick 18-day turnaround with experience of today's trip and conditions working in his favour; winless in his last five starts, but that recent placed effort under 168 lb gives genuine cause for optimism.

Rich Belief arrives on the back of back-to-back thirds, retaining solid form, and he was a winner three starts back; he has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 123 ranks him narrowly top of this field, though 158 lb is the chief burden he must overcome.

Winless in his last five starts, Allo Al Khawaneej at least has experience over today's trip and going to call on, and 30 days between runs suggests he arrives fresh; the concern is a recent unplaced effort and a stiff 154 lb to shoulder.

Winless in his last five starts and ranked 11 of 14 on our figures, Bryson is hard to fancy, though a second three starts back and a return to familiar going at least offer slim encouragement ahead of this assignment off 154 lb.
