Ernest Gray shaped with plenty of promise when second last time out and has experience of today's trip and going, giving him solid each-way claims; the main concern is a hefty 164 lb to carry.
AI verdict

SR 121 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Roger Pol is the top-rated runner here and his win five starts back gives him the most recent winning form in this line-up; he has run over today's trip and going, and while his last four outings have been below that level, he enters on a fresh 40-day break that could spark a revival.
AI verdict

SR 113 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Winless in his last five starts but a model of consistency with three seconds and two thirds, Secret Trix has experience of today's trip and going and our rating puts him right among the principals; the concern is whether he can convert his habitual placing form into something more decisive.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 11-8 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Kiwi de Cotte arrives on the back of a win last time out, boasts a pulled-up blot aside three wins in his last five starts, and handles today's distance and going; the main concern is a hefty 159 lb to shoulder.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 11-5 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Speed Davis has finished sixth and fifth in his last two starts, making him hard to fancy ranked last on our figures, though he did win three and four starts back and has experience over today's trip and going.
AI verdict

SR 107 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Secret Trix
Confidence: Speculative

Secret Trix (SR 125, 11/4) is the highest-rated runner in the field and crucially holds the strongest fitness profile for today's conditions: DistFit:+ confirms a proven record at 2m7f-range trips, and GoingFit:+ confirms effectiveness on good ground — the only runner with both boxes ticked. A mark 7lb below last win (MarkMv:-7) is a meaningful competitive advantage, and carrying 11-8 is a reasonable weight relative to form. The slight drift (Mkt:out6%) is a marginal negative but is outweighed by the alignment of SR leadership, distance/going suitability, and a trainer (Olly Murphy, 20% strike rate) who sends horses out fit after 54 days off. Form of 23-322 at the same class shows consistency rather than brilliance, but in a five-runner field at this trip, reliability on the day counts. Each-way alternative: Kiwi de Cotte. Main danger: Kiwi de Cotte — Kiwi de Cotte (SR 124, 5/2) carries the lightest weight of the principal contenders at 11-5, is trained by Dan Skelton with Harry Skelton aboard — a combination striking at 21%/27% — and GoingFit:+ confirms suitability to today's ground; the distance query (DistFit:?) is the only real concern, but at 2m7f the step up from shorter trips is not automatically prohibitive for a progressive six-year-old.

Case against 4 clamped
  • Kiwi de Cotte (SR:124, 5/2) is only 1lb lower-rated, is 3 years younger at age 6, has won most recently (form 1-P131), and is ridden by Harry Skelton (27% strike rate) for Dan Skelton (21%) — a formi…
  • Secret Trix has drifted out 6% in the market despite being the highest-rated runner — market money has instead poured into Roger Pol (in 23%) and Speed Davis (in 34%), suggesting inside confidence is…
  • 54 days off is a meaningful freshen-up, but the HG:tp (tongue-tie and pull-through) equipment and a form line of 23-322 shows Secret Trix consistently finishes in the frame without winning — a patter…
