Adaay Of Scarlett silks
Adaay Of Scarlett
Age 2 · 9-3
112
145
2
9-3
33/1 28/1 33/1
Rattled off back-to-back wins before a game half-length second in Listed company latest, and acts on today's going and distance, making this high-class colt a genuine threat — the main concern is whether he's now near his ceiling.
AI verdict

Solid form (112) and a 145 Saturday Rating are offset by 9-3 weight and non-favourite market position.

9-3
100/1
Landed a Roscommon auction race last time on the step up in trip and drop in class, but ranks near the foot of the weights here and looks vulnerable at this level, with sounder ground at least suiting his action.
AI verdict

Carries top weight of 9-3 with inconsistent form figures of 531 and a Saturday Rating of 138 limiting confidence despite solid market claims.

Bull Shark silks

2
9-3
66/1
Winless in recent starts but not without appeal — Bull Shark quickened clear latest at The Curragh only to be caught late, suggesting timing rather than ability was the issue. A very useful sprint prospect who acts on varying ground, though ranked 18th on our figures here.
AI verdict

Consistent form figures of 3332 and a 138 Saturday Rating show ability, but 9-3 weight and non-favourite market status limit upside.

4
Cilician silks
Cilician
Age 2 · 9-3
2
136
2
9-3
50/1
Cilician shaped with distinct promise on debut, going down by just half a length at Nottingham over today's trip, and speed in the pedigree suggests the six furlongs suits; however, winless in recent starts and carrying 129lb from stall 9, there's still plenty to find at this level.
AI verdict

Cilician's form figure of 2 and non-favourite market position leave too many questions unanswered despite a solid 136 Saturday Rating.

5
Confucius silks
Confucius
Age 2 · 9-3

9-3
2/1
Confucius took a Naas maiden by four lengths last time, that form already looking solid, and he gets the nod from the top course jockey in a yard that won this 12 months ago; open to further progress and the one to beat.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 136 and runner-up form suggest ability, but weight of 9-3 limits winning confidence.

9-3
8/1
Won on debut at York with plenty in hand, quickening clear cosily by three lengths on good ground over today's trip, and that novice form looks strong enough to merit this step up in class — the sole risk is how she handles 34 days off and the rise in grade.
AI verdict

Rated 138 with winning form but carrying 9-3 as a non-favourite limits confidence in this Coventry Stakes assignment.

135
2
9-3
80/1 100/1 80/1
Shaped with plenty of promise on debut at Yarmouth, finishing third — best of those held up — beaten just 1¼ lengths, and should improve stepping forward from that initial experience if ridden more positively over today's trip, though winless in recent starts remains the caveat.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 135 and form showing only a third place limits Easy Answer to a mid-tier three-star rating carrying 9-3.

8
Final Objective silks
Final Objective
Age 2 · 9-3
2
135
2
9-3
80/1 66/1 80/1
Promising debut second at Lingfield, beaten 3l while finishing well after being outpaced, suggests ability — first-time headgear adds interest — but stepping up in class leaves Final Objective looking vulnerable despite that speed pedigree over today's trip.
AI verdict

Weak form figure of 2 and a hefty 9-3 weight undermine Final Objective's chances despite a 135 Saturday Rating.

9
God Given Talent silks
God Given Talent
Age 2 · 9-3
1
138
2
9-3
25/1 22/1 25/1
Scored on debut at Newbury, quickening well to win by 1¼l, but that maiden form reads nothing special and our figures rank it well below most here — further progress needed to compete at this level.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-3 with just one run of form, God Given Talent's 138 Saturday Rating lacks the proven track record to justify higher market confidence.

10
Great Barrier Reef silks
Great Barrier Reef
Age 2 · 9-3
11
143
2
9-3
5/1 11/2 5/1
Back-to-back wins culminate in a Curragh Group 3 success last time, where he had a bit in hand and looked like 7f is well within compass — stiff track, sound surface and proven distance all in his favour, with the yard having won this last year. The main risk is handling a large field from stall 3.
AI verdict

Strong form (11) and solid Saturday Rating of 143 are undermined by heavy weight of 9-3 without favourite market support.

11
High King silks
High King
Age 2 · 9-3
01
138
2
9-3
40/1 40/1 33/1
Franked a taking Fairyhouse win with an excellent turn of foot, and that 3½-length success reads well stepping up in class; the unplaced run on the other side of that coin and a stiff 129lb are the checks on enthusiasm here.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-3 with limited form figures of 01, High King's Saturday Rating of 138 couldn't justify stronger market confidence.

9-3
100/1 80/1 100/1
Consistent but winless in recent starts, Jaan Ki Tukri has placed in all three latest outings and acts on today's going and distance — though stepping up in class looks the key test from stall 22 off 129 lb.
AI verdict

Consistent form figures of 322 and a solid Saturday Rating of 139 are offset by top weight of 9-3 without favouritism.

13
Kamaal silks
Kamaal

9-3
100/1
Winless in recent starts and beaten three lengths on a modest Newbury maiden debut 32 days ago, Kamaal looks out of depth stepping up in class here, though today's trip and going hold no fears — a big ask at the foot of the weights.
AI verdict

Kamaal's form figure of 5 and above-average weight of 9-3 limit confidence despite a competitive Saturday Rating of 133.

14
Mrair silks
Mrair
Age 2 · 9-3
21

2
9-3
16/1 12/1 16/1
Won a Lingfield novice by 3l on latest but that came in weaker company, and greenness remains a concern under 129lb from stall 14; with a trainer in form and more improvement likely as experience grows, the upside is real if inexperience doesn't cost.
AI verdict

Mrair's solid form of 21 and Saturday Rating of 140 at 9-3 weight suggest competitiveness, but non-favourite market position limits confidence.

15
Night In Vegas silks
Night In Vegas
Age 2 · 9-3

2
9-3
9/1
Back-to-back wins, including a smooth Goodwood success last time, give Night In Vegas solid claims, and the step up in class looks the obvious next test; acts on good and effective at today's trip, though 129 lb from stall 21 adds to the challenge.
AI verdict

Unbeaten form and a strong Saturday Rating of 143 are offset by 9-3 weight and non-favourite market position.

16
Royal Heritage silks
Royal Heritage

17/2 7/1 8/1
Caught the eye with a comfortable 3-length debut win at Hamilton six days ago and acts on good to soft over this trip, but the quick turnaround and a provisional rating of 102 ranked 15th of 22 suggest there are open questions — an improver worth noting, albeit untested beyond that promising maiden.
AI verdict

Solid 138 Saturday Rating and winning form are offset by 9-3 weight burden and weak market support.

17/2
Bolted up on debut at Ayr and that form has been franked, marking this one out as potentially very useful stepping up in class; acts on the going and trip, though the hefty 129lb and draw 17 are factors to weigh against a short sample of evidence.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 138 and winning form are offset by 9-3 weight and non-favourite market position.

9-3
12/1
Bolted up by four lengths on debut at Yarmouth, quickening clear with plenty in hand, and stays today's trip on this ground — a smart prospect returning off a short break, though 129 lb and 56 days off give rivals something to aim at.
AI verdict

Siouxperb's single win in form and absence from favouritism limit confidence despite a solid Saturday Rating of 138 at 9-3.

50/1 66/1 50/1
Followed up debut experience with a narrow novice win at Nottingham 13 days ago, but this represents a sharp step up in grade and, ranked 16th of 22 on our figures, considerably more improvement will be needed to make an impact here.
AI verdict

Solid 138 Saturday Rating and promising 01 form are offset by a hefty 9-3 weight and non-favourite market position.

40/1 33/1 40/1
Scraped home by a nose on debut at Goodwood nine days ago, with the form nothing special and the win flattered by a pace collapse — hard to fancy at the foot of the weights on these figures, though the scope to progress with that run under its belt offers the only realistic hook.
AI verdict

Solid 138 Saturday Rating and unbeaten form are offset by 9-3 weight burden and non-favourite market position.

40/1
Landed a Listowel maiden by three lengths 16 days ago and is clearly progressing, though carrying 129lb from stall 16 is a notable ask stepping into stronger company; breeding points to 6f/7f on good ground as the sweet spot, so conditions at least play to strengths.
AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 138 and placed form (421) offset by 9-3 weight burden and non-favourite market position.

125/1
Promising 3l fourth on debut at Nottingham shows ability, and today's trip and conditions suit, but ranked 19th of 22 on our figures, Treasurer has plenty to find in this company despite likely improvement still to come.
AI verdict

Treasurer's single '4' form figure and 133 Saturday Rating make it hard to trust at 9-3 weight against stronger-credentialed rivals.

Great Barrier Reef
Confidence: Medium

Great Barrier Reef (SR 143, 9-3) carries a joint-top SR alongside Night In Vegas and sits at the top of the Aidan O'Brien juvenile production line — a trainer with an outstanding record in this specific race. The unbeaten form string of '11' is the strongest multi-run evidence in the field, both wins coming on good to firm ground which matches today's conditions perfectly. While Night In Vegas (SR 143) also shows '11' for Eve Johnson Houghton, the O'Brien operation's depth of juvenile form at Group level and their consistent record at Royal Ascot gives Great Barrier Reef the edge in class-adjusted confidence. Adaay Of Scarlett (SR 145) is the sole horse with a higher SR but has a '2' on his card suggesting he has already been beaten, and Hugo Palmer's operation lacks the elite juvenile Group 2 firepower of O'Brien for this specific test. Each-way alternative: Night In Vegas. Main danger: Adaay Of Scarlett — Adaay Of Scarlett holds the highest SR in the field at 145 for Hugo Palmer and a form string of '112' confirms consistent high-level performance across three runs, meaning he arrives battle-hardened and proven over 6f on good to firm ground.
