No Knee Never (SR:72, 4/1) shares the joint-top SR in the field alongside Kaaranah and Bellasio, but crucially combines that rating with the strongest market signal in the race — an 18% inward move to 4/1 — and proven course form of W2P2 at Wolverhampton. Carrying 9-8, it holds a weight advantage over Kaaranah (9-9) at equal SR, and James Owen's 17% trainer strike rate from 1,501 runners is the most statistically compelling yard figure in the field. Running off a mark just 4lb above its last win (MarkMv:+4) is manageable, and the GoingFit:~ on good AW ground does not concern in the absence of a stronger positive from rivals. The only note of caution is a recent form figure of '3' suggesting it didn't win last time, but the market shortening meaningfully into today suggests connections expect a forward move.
Each-way alternative: Bellasio.
Main danger: Kaaranah — Kaaranah (SR:72) has exceptional course form of W3P3 at Wolverhampton, a confirmed GoingFit:+, and a last-time-out winning form figure — the most course-specialist profile in the race — though the 25% market drift is a concern that needs explaining away.
