Our view
Best selection: Media Legend. Recent figures of 3421 – won last time; a Race DNA fit of 71 – today's going, trip and track suit what it has shown before; 11 days since its last run, a sensible gap; trainer Harry Charlton has had 31 winners from 239 runners in our recent records.
The case against: handicap marks are meant to level the field; we can't yet confirm how it handles standard ground from our own records.
Others to consider: Coolree and Matter of Britain.
