Chamber Verdict

Balanced lens

Harmani

Speculative

Harmani owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (52) and market confidence (85). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Bay Of Stars
Confidence: Medium

Bay Of Stars (SR 91, 9/2) carries the joint-lowest weight in the field at 8-9, giving him a clear lbs advantage over top-weight New Zealand (SR 95, 9-13) — a 18lb swing that more than compensates for the 4-point SR gap. His form string 6-12 shows a near-miss second followed by a win most recently, confirming he is in peak form and on an upward trajectory. D K Weld is one of the shrewdest handlers of staying 3yos in Irish racing, and the 1m4f207y trip on Good ground suits a horse whose last two runs demonstrate he handles this trip and conditions. The 9/2 price represents genuine value given the weight-in-hand and recency of winning form. Each-way alternative: Harmani. Main danger: Harmani — Harmani (SR 94, 5/1) carries a favourable 8-11 and his form string 27-321 ends with a win last time out, making him the most in-form runner with the second-best SR in the field — G M Lyons will have him primed for this step up in trip.
