Analyst verdict Locked 09:14 BST · #3b9b65 · updated 15:44 BST (v2)

No clear edge in this big handicap field, so we're sitting this one out.

None of the fancied horses offer enough of an edge over their price to make a bet worthwhile here. Maxwell Smart comes closest on the numbers, but a winless record leaves too little to back it with confidence.

How the race should unfoldSearcog heads the market after a big gamble but steps down sharply in trip after a spell over hurdles, leaving his form hard to trust. Lily Parr carries top weight in a large field, while Anightaway and Sir Trancealot have both drifted in the betting, clouding their claims.

Searcog

Backed heavily into favourite, with the best recent form on offer, but that form came over hurdles and he faces a much shorter trip today, leaving his speed unproven here.

26% / 21%

Maxwell Smart

Reunited with a jockey who has partnered it to good effect lately, including a close finish, and now steps up to a trip that should suit.

19% / 21%

Lily Parr

Well supported in the betting, but carries top weight in a field of eleven, a tough ask that has often hurt horses' chances, and it's still without a win.

16% / 25%

Anightaway

Pairs up again with a jockey who has already won on it, and the trip should suit, though its price has drifted since the morning.

10% / 13%

Sir Trancealot

A yard and jockey both in good form, but recent runs have faded and its price has also drifted, both pointing the wrong way.

7% / 15%

Red flags

Searcog's best form came over hurdles, not on the level, so his shorter trip today is unproven.Lily Parr carries top weight in a field of eleven and has yet to win a race.Anightaway and Sir Trancealot have both drifted in the betting, which often signals fading confidence.
