Third on three occasions in recent starts, L'Eagle Aid arrives here 26 days fresh, has run over today's trip and going, and a rating of 80 makes him narrowly the pick on these figures; winless in his last six, he must convert that consistency into something more.

Fresh from a win three starts back and back in good time on going she has encountered before, Mother Dear arrives here with her rating of 77 suggesting she is ahead of her official mark — the question is whether she can recapture that form after back-to-back below-par efforts.

Consistent placer who finished second and third in his last four starts, Al Fujairah has experience of today's going and returns fit on a quick turnaround, though his trainer's recent 3% strike rate is a concern for a gelding yet to score.

Ran well to finish third last time out, though her recent form also includes a pair of mid-pack efforts, and carrying 134 lb will test her resolve; she has run over today's trip and going before, and a win in her last five starts shows ability worth respecting.
