Analyst verdict Locked 09:58 BST · #1d8e70 · updated 17:56 BST (v2)
A crowded, wide-open handicap where no horse looks clearly underpriced.

None of today's contenders look clearly underpriced once recent form is weighed against the weight they are carrying. The two most likely winners both shoulder a big weight for this grade, a combination that has a poor track record, while the shorter-priced outsiders have moved too far in the market to back with confidence.

How the race should unfoldThis is a packed two-year-old handicap with no standout favourite. The two most fancied horses, who recently filled the first two places over this course and distance, look likely to set and control the pace between them, leaving little encouragement for those further back.
1
Lady Henshaw
Lady Henshaw won here over this trip in better company last time, but she now carries a big weight and her price already reflects that form.
19% / 14%
2
Casino Star
Casino Star was runner-up in a handicap at this course last time and is with a yard in good form, with her price looking a fair reflection of that.
18% / 10%
3
Valdoro
Valdoro has shortened sharply after dropping into easier company and nearly winning last time, but she carries a big weight and looks the weakest on ability among the main contenders.
12% / 4%
4
Dowman
Dowman is from a yard in good form that has already won today, but that is already built into the price, and a big morning price move adds to the doubt.
10% / 16%
5
Grey Tamam
Grey Tamam has some promising form figures hidden behind her finishing positions, but she has shortened so much in the market today that the price is hard to trust.
7% / 18%
Red flags
The two most fancied horses both carry a notably big weight for this grade, a combination that has often disappointed in similar races.Some outsiders have moved a long way in the betting today, which makes their current price harder to rely on.With 13 runners and no clear leader, the pace and shape of the race are hard to predict.
