Gregory
5/6SR 117 is the class of the field by a wide margin, distance and going both positive, and James Doyle's 21% career strike rate backs the booking. The drift to 5/6 is modest, not al…

🥈Predicted 2nd
Goblet of Fire
7/2SR 94, weight relief of 4lb, and genuine distance and going fit make this the clearest danger — the class rise of two levels caps the ceiling but not the place claim at 7/2.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Arabian Force
7/1Haggas at 21% yard strike rate and 11 days' freshness give Arabian Force a fitness edge; SR 102 outranks Goblet of Fire but the triple-defeat form string is a concrete drag.
-
4Predicted 4th
Kelly Burn
25/1Form string reads 521511 — strong recent wins at lower level — and Fanshawe's yard is at 20% in the last fortnight, but the three-class rise is a step too far today.

Mezzo Forte
11/4Lone front-runner on a track that suits leaders, Ryan Moore booked, Haggas yard at 21% — and the market has told us something definitive by hammering him from double figures to 11…

🥈Predicted 2nd
Varzi
17/2SR 100 is the joint-highest in the race, dual-favourite form from his first two starts shows class, and at 17/2 the market has already priced the fifth-place run — he closes harde…

🥉Predicted 3rd
Undiscovered
9/1The steaming market move is real and Rossa Ryan's 18% strike rate backs it, but the hold-up profile in a front-runner's race limits him to third at best.
-
4Predicted 4th
Great Balls O'Fire
3/1SR 99 and a winning debut are on his CV but the 33-day gap, the drift in the market, and one solitary form line against rivals with two or three runs make him a narrow fourth.

Harry Knows
6/1SR 93 heads the model ranking on form, class drop, and speed; Ryan Moore at 24% strike rate on a 6/1 shot is the booking this race turns on.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Black Velvet Boy
9/2Joint-highest SR at 97, back-to-back wins in the form, and a 4lb weight relief from last run; Oisin Murphy at 22% keeps him dangerous.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Not My Type
11/1Form of 115 and a William Haggas yard firing at 21% in the last 14 days — the hot-yard signal is real and 11/1 is each-way value at that strike rate.
-
4Predicted 4th
Lazurite
10/3SR 97 is the joint-best in the field and Buick at 25% is a strong booking, but the drift and a class rise combine to temper enthusiasm for the front-running style in a hot pace.

Bear On The Run
9/4SR 100 leads the field by 7 points, form reads 51-1 with two consecutive wins, distance and going both fit, and a steam from 4/1 to 9/4 confirms market conviction.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Lady Roxby
10/3SR 93 is second-best in the field, she placed in her last two runs, and her 4lb weight drop from last outing gives her the best handicap position among the danger horses.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Woohoo
7/1SR 86, going fit positive, and as the lone front-runner she controls her own race — six consecutive placed runs suggest she finds the frame without necessarily winning.
-
4Predicted 4th
Mubasimah
5/1SR 92 and Oisin Murphy at 22% career strike rate give her a speculative each-way claim, but a 10lb weight rise and a form string of 605076 cap her at best a frame finisher.

Code Of Honour
6/4SR 153, steaming market move of +1.4 in the model, Appleby at 61% in 14 days, Buick booked — every signal points here. The price of 6/4 reflects what the market already knows.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Netherstream
11/4Highest SR in the field at 157, Jane Chapple-Hyam's yard running at 27% in 14 days, and a positive form progression from 12/1 to 5/1 last start shows genuine ability.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Hamrin
5/2SR 155 is genuine and Balding at 18% over 14 days is respectable, but Oisin Murphy's mount lacks the steaming market move that separates Code Of Honour from this tier.
-

Del Pearo
28/1A form line of 6-4 shows modest improvement and the weight drop of 2lb helps marginally, but SR 124 leaves too much to find against the top three.

Blakefell
15/2Sole steamer in the race, SP compression from 4/1 to 6/4 across last three starts, model's top-ranked horse at 5.96 — the market and the model are aligned and I follow both.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Sailthisshipalone
9/2Going-plus flag on soft, a 331 closing sequence, and Ivan Furtado's yard at 4-32 — she is the horse most likely to run Blakefell to a head.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Jannas Journey
9/2Distance-plus, going-plus, and a 9/2 price that hasn't drifted — Lauren Young's 5yo gets into the money off 9-9 in a race without a dominant pace.
-
4Predicted 4th
Dwindling Funds
6/1Jim Goldie's second string carries distance-plus and going-plus like stablemate Jannas Journey, but Paul Mulrennan's booking at 6/1 drifting is the only hesitation.

Golden Souk
4/1K.R. Burke debutants command respect and the 4/1 price reflects real yard reputation; second in the model at 5.10 with trainer-strike the key positive driver.

🥉Predicted 3rd
Rogue Constelation
11/4Edward Bethell's yard at 21% is a genuine hot-stable signal, but the drift from a shorter price today introduces doubt — third best in this field on balance.
-

Gold Key
9/2The model scores Gold Key at 3.96 with a form positive, but the heavy drift and Kevin Ryan's yard at just 7% over 14 days cap the ceiling here.

Fine Interview
17/2GF:+ flag on soft ground, steamed to 17/2, Doyle at 21% strike rate, and a hot 25% yard. The going filter alone eliminates several market rivals.

Binhareer
7/2The model ranks him third on speed and class-change positives; Haggas yard is 24% over 14 days and Marquand at 16% provides a reliable pilot at 7/2.

Dance In The Storm
13/2Oisin Murphy's 22% strike rate is the second-best jockey number in the field; Balding yard at 21% is hot and the 9-1 weight is manageable in this context.

Dark Issue

🥉Predicted 3rd
Starburster
12/1Richard Spencer's yard is the only genuinely hot operation here at 21% over 14 days; a three-class rise is ambitious but the form (4-1) reads like a horse going the right way.
-
4Predicted 4th
Etonnante
7/1Lone front-runner with a 5lb pull and a recent win — she dictates tempo and will be hard to pass — but the drift to 7/1 from 1/2F is an uncomfortable signal to dismiss entirely.

Deep Havana
13/2Model top-scorer at 6.23, lone credible front-runner on today's pace map, positive distance fit, Doyle booked, yard 25% in past 14 days — every signal points the same direction.

🥈Predicted 2nd
Trilby
10/1Form of 310412 includes a recent second, going flag positive on soft, and Sam England's 31% strike rate makes this yard the hottest in the field — Tom Marquand will be hunting dow…

🥉Predicted 3rd
Havana Blue
11/1Form of 422211 is outstanding and the horse clearly knows how to finish — the soft-ground minus flag is the one concern that stops me going further up the forecast.
-
4Predicted 4th
Rapper's Delight
8/1Richard Spencer's yard at 21% and the form of 992288 trends upward on the numbers — an 8/1 price for a horse creeping into the frame each time is the value outlier here.
