His connections landed this race last year, and L’Eagle Aid has solid course and distance form on a sound surface; returning after 50 days off, he ran to form here last time though the handicapper may have his measure, with our figures placing him fourth in the field.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 67, inconsistent form (16-566), and 10-2 weight burden justify a cautious 7/1 market price.

Landing a handicap by 4½ lengths at Salisbury last time off a mark 6lb below today’s, Taritino came through with authority and handles any ground at this trip; a weight rise was inevitable after a performance that emphatic, but he may still have more to offer.
AI verdict

Taritino's recent form (448-21) shows promise but a Saturday Rating of 82 and 10-0 weight limit confidence at 10/3.

11/2 6/1 5/1
A 2¼-length winner at Goodwood off a 3lb lower mark two starts back, Oman returns in first-time cheekpieces having slipped below that level most recently; he handles this trip and going well and is in decent form overall, though 3lb higher than his winning mark today.
AI verdict

Oman's inconsistent form (278414) and a burdensome 10-0 weight undermine confidence despite fair 13/2 odds and a Saturday Rating of 72.

Third beaten 3 lengths off this exact mark at York last time, Triple Force is consistent on a sound surface and tends to make the running; first-time cheekpieces are added today, but he remains 4lb above his last winning mark, making the principals difficult to beat.
AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 64 and inconsistent form (18-043) at 9-13 weight make 9/1 odds hard to justify.

Beaten a length off this mark last time, Percy Jones showed a marginal improvement on his recent form and handles any ground at this trip; first-time cheekpieces are added, though he needs to find considerably more after a difficult mid-season patch.
AI verdict

Poor recent form (558-83), high weight of 9-13, and weak 11/1 market position undermine Percy Jones's modest Saturday Rating of 61.

Fifth beaten 8½ lengths on his latest flat outing, Spartan Times has shown better form over hurdles but comes back here with something to prove; he handles the trip on good going and is 2lb lower today, though our figures rate him well behind the field.
AI verdict

Spartan Times carries top weight of 9-13 with a modest Saturday Rating of 64, poor recent form of 4313-5, and drifted to 9/1 in the market.

Fourth beaten 11 lengths at Southwell last time out, Atheneum has been off the track for 81 days and now gets first-time cheekpieces; he handles this distance on good going and could bounce back closer to his best, but he sits at the foot of our figures and faces a tough task.
AI verdict

Rated just 50 with weak 202-04 form and dismissed by the market at 18/1, Atheneum carries 9-3 with little winning evidence.

Third beaten 2 lengths off this mark at Hamilton last time, Condotti showed a marginal upturn in form and now adds first-time cheekpieces here; the concern is that he may be best at shorter and could find today’s trip a stamina test.
AI verdict

Condotti's moderate Saturday Rating of 65 and inconsistent form (604-93) at 5/1 suggest limited winning prospects under 9-1.

A half-length maiden success at Lingfield last time puts Relentless Hero in good heart for a handicap debut, and a mark of 72 looks fair for what appears a modest field; he handles most ground conditions and is trained by a top course handler, making him the one to beat.
AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 83 and fair 7/2 odds are offset by inconsistent 4-541 form and a hefty 8-13 weight.

Relentless Hero
Confidence: Medium

Relentless Hero (SR 83, 7/2) is the joint top-rated horse in the field and carries a featherweight 8-13 — a 15lb advantage over top-weight L'Eagle Aid and meaningful edges over every rival. The form string 4-541 shows a progressive 3-year-old who won last time out, and Andrew Balding is a trainer who places young middle-distance horses with precision. At 7/2 with the market's second-shortest price and the lightest weight in the race, the SR, weight, and form signals all align. Each-way alternative: Taritino. Main danger: Taritino — Taritino (SR 82, 10/3) is the joint top-rated runner, holds the shortest price in the field, and the 448-21 form string shows a horse who has found winning form in its last two starts — if it is at the peak of that progression today, it is the most likely danger to Relentless Hero.
