5/1
Winner of three races from 10 starts here including this contest last year. Reappears after almost a year off for a yard that do well at this local track and who were amongst the winners here on Tuesday. Mixed signals from previous runs after a layoff so the market will be the best guide.

4/11
Has seven career victories here and has run two excellent races in defeat over C&D this year. Capable front-runner who could take some pegging back on these terms. Previously trained by Michael Appleby who has Brassbound in this.

Has had plenty of races since his last win more than two years ago. That was in similar grade but more recent efforts and his current rating leave him a long way short.

8/1
Former useful stayer for Sir Michael Stoute has had his issues and this will be just his third run in two years. Ran over an inadequate trip on sole start for this yard in July. Clear pick on official ratings and the market will gauge his anticipated fitness.

12/1
Has looked untrustworthy on his last two starts. Dropped in grade but hard to excuse recent behaviour and discounted in a race where he has something to find.

Verdict

LUV U WHATEVER takes a significant drop in class and appears to have found a good opportunity to add to his impressive record here. La Estrella has a superior wins:runs ratio around here but may need further nowadays. Brassbound is back from an absence bidding to follow up last year's success. His fitness has to be a concern but his stable, who used to train the selection, are going well so any positive vibes in the market would make him interesting.
