| 1 | Hard StareHard Stare arrives on a good note after back-to-back thirds, the latest last time out, and he has run on today's going before. A 166-day absence is the one reservation, but our rating of 95 makes him the one to beat off 168 lb. | 0073-3 | 6 | 12-00 | Ben Godfrey | Anthony Honeyball | 85 | 15/8 |
| 2 | Tom TaggleTom Taggle arrives in solid shape, third last time out and a fourth two starts back, with just 21 days since that run and a spell on today's going behind him. Our rating of 88 ranks him second of four, but he is yet to win in his last five, and 168 lb is a hefty burden. | F374-3 | 6 | 12-00 | Adam Wedge | Mrs C. Williams | 85 | 15/8 |
