11/2 3/1 5/1
Beaten in her last two outings, April Mist was a winner three starts back and a runner-up four starts back, giving her solid recent form to call on; she has run over today's trip and going, and at 143 lb from stall six, she heads the ratings as the one to beat.
AI verdict

SR 82 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Bold Commander ran second four starts back and has experience of today's trip and going, making him a solid threat from stall one under 138 lb — though five starts without a win in recent form is the chief concern.
AI verdict

SR 73 suggests ability but 11/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in her last three starts, Ocean Surge nonetheless brings distance and going experience to the table and returns on a handy 20-day break, but her recent finishes make improvement essential from stall two carrying 138 lb.
AI verdict

SR 67 suggests ability but 9/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in her last three starts, including a ninth two runs back that blunts enthusiasm, Scarlet Dream has run over today's trip and going and returns on a sound 19-day break, though a trainer without a strike from 27 recent runners is a concern for this midfield prospect.
AI verdict

SR 65 suggests ability but 15/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in his last four starts, with three consecutive sixths and a seventh among them, Captain James Cook is hard to fancy on these figures, ranked seventh of nine; he has run over today's trip and going before, and 16 days between runs suggests he arrives fresh.
AI verdict

SR 65 suggests ability but 6/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Twice placed third in her last two starts, Pink Venom arrives on a fitness-friendly 29-day break and has run over today's distance and going before, with our rating of 78 suggesting she holds more in hand than her official mark implies — the main concern is a trainer without a winner in the last 14 days.
AI verdict

SR 77 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Yet to score in his last four starts, Prince Of Peppard does at least bring distance and going experience to this, and his 72 rating suggests he holds more ability than his official mark of 65 implies — though a trainer in the depths of a 0-from-26 run is the significant concern.
AI verdict

SR 63 suggests ability but 10/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Winless in her last four starts and ranked eighth of nine on our figures, Lily Bear faces a stiff ask here; she does bring experience of today's trip and conditions, and a four-day turnaround suggests she is fit, but her recent finishes make her hard to fancy.
AI verdict

AI verdict

SR 32 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 40/1.

Pink Venom
Confidence: Speculative

Pink Venom (SR:77, 10/3) leads this field in ability and carries just 8-13 — a 4lb advantage over top-weight April Mist (SR:82, 10-3) that meaningfully narrows the SR gap. The 17% market shortening is the most significant market signal in the race and suggests informed money backing connections' #1 from the Murtagh yard. A course placing (W0P1 at Fairyhouse) is relevant experience, and the 733 form string shows consistent placing without a disastrous run. Ben Coen (11%, 1800 runners) is clearly the yard's chosen jockey over Rory Mulligan on stablemate Prince Of Peppard, confirming stable intent. Each-way alternative: April Mist. Main danger: April Mist — April Mist has the highest SR in the field at 82 and is trained by G. M. Lyons (16% strike rate), and despite the 10-3 weight burden the market holds her at 4/1 with no drift signal, suggesting the handicapper's assessment of her ability is respected.

Case against 4 clamped
  • Pink Venom's form reads 733 — three consecutive thirds with no win, suggesting a horse that consistently finishes in the frame but cannot find the extra gear to win; a maiden that hasn't won may stru…
  • April Mist's trainer G.M. Lyons runs at 16% strike rate (vs Murtagh's 11%) and April Mist's SR of 82 outstrips Pink Venom's 77 by 5 points — the 4lb weight pull only compensates for roughly 2-3 SR po…
  • Ben Coen's overall strike rate is just 11% and Pink Venom is 29 days since its last run — a potential fitness concern on a horse that has never won and may need the outing to hit peak condition.
  • The 17% market move in isolation is moderate; Bold Commander (Aidan O'Brien, 22% trainer SR) at 11/2 with only 4 days since last run represents fresher, in-form stable confidence from a higher-strike…
