Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 32 bookmakers per horse with the 22% overround stripped out. A green badge means the best book currently pays above that consensus — a price check, not a tip: the market can be wrong about a horse, this only tells you when a book stands out from it.

Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Qitaal is operating below his last winning mark and the trip and ground suit — a modest effort last time is not enough to dismiss him. Mao Shang Wong is closely matched and showed renewed form recently at this level; Cisco Disco carries a strong course record but may want softer conditions, while Altareq, better over 10f than his Carlisle run suggested, is a further danger. Qitaal is our selection.

Racing Post pick: Qitaal
