Analyst verdict Locked 09:30 BST · #55108d · updated 16:47 BST (v2)

A wide-open 14-runner handicap with no standout and no betting value on offer.

The market's prices look broadly fair across this big field, and the few areas of possible value are too marginal or uncertain to back with confidence.

How the race should unfoldFourteen runners line up with no dominant favourite. One horse looks the likeliest to take the lead, but another with a similar racing style could prevent a clean break, so this race is unlikely to be settled until deep into the final stages.

Spirit Of Nature

Came into this on the up after a close second at a big price, and now sits as a fair-priced favourite with little hidden value left.

17% / 11%

Wyvill

The three-year-old is in the best form of its career, having run close to winning in each of its recent starts.

13% / 12%

Havachoc

Finished well back last time, but that run came against much stronger opposition, and several of those rivals have since gone on to win.

12% / 9%

Masego

Drops in from jumps racing with a big gap between its official rating and apparent ability, though this move is largely unproven so far.

12% / 13%

Lednikov

Looks the likeliest to take it up in front, with more raw ability than its rating suggests, but was only narrowly beaten last time out.

6% / 5%

Red flags

The pace picture is not fully settled - the likely leader could be challenged for the front, which would change how the race plays out.The step up from jumps to this longer flat trip is a big, largely untested leap for one of the contenders.Reading improved form into one runner's last run depends on judging how strong its opposition really was, not a clear result.
