Iwasjustsaying (SR 156, 2/1) is the highest-rated runner in the field by 3 points and is the only horse who has already won on debut — a Form:1 at the same class level (ClassMv:=) 24 days ago. Charlie Johnston posts a 13% yard strike rate across 1,352 runners and Jack Mitchell (13% from 954) is a solid booking. The 7lb weight advantage over most rivals (9-9 vs 9-2) is a genuine concern in soft ground, but the SR superiority and race-experience edge over a field dominated by unraced maidens comfortably offsets that premium. The market at 2/1 reflects deserved confidence and no drift is recorded, reinforcing that connections are happy.
Each-way alternative: United Authority.
Main danger: Inkjet — Inkjet (SR 151, 6/1) is unraced but has steamed in 15% from opening price under William Haggas (21% strike rate from 1,150 runners) — the strongest market move in the field — suggesting Haggas's yard holds this debut horse in high regard, and a top trainer steamer on a 7f good-to-soft debut is exactly the profile that beats odds-on newcomers.

Iwasjustsaying carries 9-9, a 7lb penalty over rivals — on soft Leicester ground that weight burden is a tangible physical disadvantage in a stamina test against lighter 2yo opponents.
Inkjet (SR:151, William Haggas 21% strike rate) is shortening into the race at -15% market move, suggesting Haggas has a well-fancied debut runner who could outclass the form on first-time out upside.
United Authority (SR:153) comes from Ralph Beckett (17%) with James Doyle aboard (19%) — only 3 points behind Iwasjustsaying on SR and ran a respectable 5th, with further improvement likely after 47-…
Jack Mitchell's 13% strike rate is modest, and Charlie Johnston's yard runs at the same 13% — below the Haggas (21%) and Beckett/Boughey (17%) operations represented in this field, giving rivals a tr…
