Our view

Best selection: Orderoftheday. Recent figures of 1 – won last time; trainer Olly Murphy has had 107 winners from 519 runners in our recent records.

The case against: returns from a long break, so fitness is a question; handicap marks are meant to level the field; we can't yet confirm how it handles soft ground from our own records.

Others to consider: Tanking Along and Lermoos Legend.
