Off The Jury
10/3Back-to-back wins, Sean Bowen at 24% strike rate, and a steaming market; the 142-day break is the only caveat and connections' confidence argues it's not a problem.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Below The Radar
9/2Nicholls yard at 22% and a matching market move are strong signals; three consecutive placed runs at this level suggest he runs his race but can't get past the winner.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Stride On
7/2Form score the highest among the drifters and Lucinda Russell's yard at 15% gives him a base; he needs things to fall right from off the pace to reach the frame.
-
4Predicted 4th
Dixie Mafia
9/2A win last time out and a career-low weight of 10-9 give him an each-way argument at 9/2 for a yard that may have timed this return after 196 days carefully.

🥇Predicted 1st
Watery Borren
11/8Two wins from two starts, no distance or going concerns flagged, and a 15% yard strike rate. In a four-runner field, an unbeaten record is the ceiling of form evidence.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Aqua Bleu
9/2Class drop of two levels and a steaming market give Aqua Bleu obvious credentials — but a 266-day absence after a pulled-up run caps the confidence here.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Risky Obsession
6/4Harry Skelton at 27% is the strongest jockey booking in the race, but 209 days off and a drifting SP trend (7/4→10/3→6/1) make this hard to place higher.
-
4Predicted 4th
Avide
12/1A drifter at 12/1 with a form string of just '/−' and no distance or going fit confirmed — the data offers nothing to work with here.

Trustintimes
5/2Lone front-runner sets up perfectly for this hold-up horse; Fry yard at 25% over 14 days, form reads 11120-, steamed from 9/1 to 5/2 with clear intent.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Williethebuilder
9/1Christian Williams running at a yard-hot 27%, form reads 1407-1, and a class rise of one is offset by recent winning form and going fit rated positive.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Nap Hand
10/120lb weight drop from last run is a significant positive; form of -22141 shows consistent placing, and distance fit rated positive at 10/1.
-
4Predicted 4th
Brendas Asking
14/1Kim Bailey yard at 22%, going fit rated positive, and lone front-runner status gives a real chance of dictating — but sixteen runners make being caught likely.

-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Babs
11/4Form string of 7-5211 is the most progressive in the field and going/distance fit both register positive, but Henry Oliver's 0% yard form is a genuine drag at a class-rise meeting.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Sportingsilvermine
5/2James Owen's yard is at 20% and a class drop is a positive driver, but a 26lb weight rise and confirmed poor going fit, combined with a drift in the market, cap the ceiling.
-
4Predicted 4th
Masterius
15/2Won last time at 8/15 and distance fits, but the Pipe yard is 0-from-8 and the market has drifted him to 15/2 — the form says danger, the yard and market say caution.

🥇Predicted 1st
Califet En Vol
11/4Model leader, market steamer, de Boinville at 26% strike rate. The convergence of money, jockey quality, and speed scores overrides the trainer's modest 11% window.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Viroflay
4/1Last ran off 5/6F and won; distance and going both grade positive. The drift to 4/1 is the only note of caution — Nicholls at 15% keeps him live.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Queensbury Boy
11/2Steaming into 11/2, last run was a win, going grades positive. Mickey Bowen's yard is cold but the market is overruling that hesitation at this price.
-
4Predicted 4th
Tapley
9/1Form string 13-411 reads as a horse in form; 15lb weight drop from last run is significant and the going grades positive, even with a cold yard behind him.

🥇Predicted 1st
Gore Point
11/1Unbeaten in five chases, 7lb lower than last run, distance and going both tick positive, Honeyball at 33% and Twiston-Davies at 17% — every signal outside the market points here.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Vanderpoel
9/2Form string 32117 shows consistent upward trajectory and the steaming 9/2 price reflects genuine public confidence; cold trainer yard is the brake on making him the winner.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Haas Boy
9/2Form 2611-2 is solid, distance suits, and an 8lb weight drop puts him competitively weighted; 9/2 steamer with Chester Williams at 33% yard form makes him live each-way.
-
4Predicted 4th
Boothill
17/2Harry Fry's yard is hot at 25% and the market has steamed him to favouritism, but three non-completions in the last five runs at topweight make this a market move I cannot follow.

🥇Predicted 1st
Glynn Brae
4/1A two-class drop, the sharpest market move on the card, and a 17% jockey at a 14% yard. The weight rise is real but the class relief is larger.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Dance And Glance
11/4Honeyball at 33% is the strongest yard signal in the race; going suits and the 11/4 reflects genuine market respect for a consistent form string.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Jet To Vegas
2/1Last-run winner from a 23% yard earns the place, but going marked as unfavourable and a thin jockey sample cap confidence at the odds-on price.
-
4Predicted 4th
The Gray Ghost
4/1Sets the pace but going doesn't suit (GF:-) and a 0-from-3 trainer provides no platform; vulnerable when the hold-up runners arrive at the last.

Media Mogul
5/2Model-topper at 6.73, backed into 5/2 from morning prices, recent winner at 85/40F, hot Dascombe yard at 20%, class drop positive. The market and the model agree.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Lord Chamberlain
14/1An 11lb drop in weight is a significant concession from the handicapper and the market has steamed him; live danger despite 122 days off.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Fidendum
13/2Form reads R-1312 — consistent placed form at the right end, going marked as a positive, and McPherson's yard sits at 29% over 14 days.
-

Secret Sniper
2/1Despite favouritism at 2/1, a 189-day layoff and a form string peaking at a placed second undermine any case for winning at this price.

🥇Predicted 1st
Micky Haller
20/1Skelton yard at 26% in 14 days, winning debut form, and completely unconsidered at 20/1 while his stablemate is overbet. The market has drawn the wrong line between these two.
-
🥈Predicted 2nd
Newgrove
11/4Harry Skelton at 27% career strike rate, winning bumper form, same hot yard as slot 1 — the drift is a concern but the underlying credentials keep him as the main danger.
-
🥉Predicted 3rd
Tythingman
11/2Joe Tizzard's yard is operating at 28% in 14 days and Freddie Gingell rides at 22%; a winning debut qualifies Tythingman as each-way live despite the drift from shorter.
-
4Predicted 4th
Milord D'anjou
9/1Steaming into 9/1 from further out, the model's second-ranked horse on market move plus form — Ben Pauling's 6% yard form tempers enthusiasm but the money arriving here is a tell.
