Analyst verdict Locked 09:53 BST · #d3ef07 · updated 16:14 BST (v2)

A brisk pace among front-runners could open the door for the favourite's rivals.

Confidence

Medium · Tier B

How the race should unfoldWith fourteen runners and three confirmed front-runners, the pace looks set to be hot, and they may tire each other out, which should help those racing closer to the pace settle things late. The favourite's stable has been quiet recently and she faces an awkward wide draw, leaving room for a couple of better-drawn, in-form rivals.

Spirit Lead Me

The reigning favourite won last time out, but a wide draw and a recent dip in her stable's form make her look vulnerable to a couple of rivals.

24% / 33%

Sub Thirteen

Backed heavily in the build-up, she was only narrowly beaten last time in a strong race and looks better than her price suggests.

19% / 10%

Dalmally

A recent winner with real class and previous form over this trip, though she carries top weight and drew wide, which may explain her bigger price.

14% / 13%

Georg Zhukov

Once rated higher, his form has dipped from its peak, so he is rated a touch below where the market has him.

10% / 13%

Sceptic

From a yard in form today and well backed, but he is short of his best and could get caught up in a fast early pace, so he is left out of the betting.

9% / 6%

Red flags

The favourite drew awkwardly wide and her stable has underperformed in recent weeks.One of the fancied runners steps up in distance today over a trip she hasn't proven she stays.The in-form yard's runner may be caught out if the early gallop is as brisk as expected.
