Patrol has been runner-up twice in his last five starts, including two starts back, but remains without a win after a fair fourth last time out. The eye-catching stat is our rating of 99, some 21 pounds above his modest official mark of 78, making him a clear standout on our figures in this smaller field.

Level Look won last time out, the pick of a spell that also included a fourth and an unplaced run before it, but that was 189 days ago and he returns fresh. The lengthy absence is the obvious question for a gelding who leaves the form boost of that latest success in his favour.

Cranachan won two starts back, was a close second three starts back, and only managed fourth last time out. The yard is firing too, landing 30% of runners in the last fortnight, and fit 27 days on, he's a leading threat here.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-6 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Counter Intuitive won last time out, a big step up on the two starts before that when only sixth and eighth. Fit 31 days on and with today's trip in her favour, she's the type who can build on that new-found form, though there's little proven depth to her figure yet.

Cranachan owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (51) and market confidence (84). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Counter Intuitive
Confidence: Medium

Counter Intuitive (SR:89, 13/8) arrives on the back of a last-time-out win, dropping one class (ClassMv:↓1) which gives a built-in advantage in a competitive 4-runner field. Billy Loughnane's 18% strike rate from 1,604 career rides is the strongest jockey booking in the race, and Ed Walker's 14% yard is consistent rather than flashy. The 9-4 weight is the lightest in the field, giving a meaningful lbs edge over Patrol (10-2) at comparable or lower SR. The form string '8-61' — ending in a win — is the most recent positive trajectory in the race, and class relief compounds that momentum. Each-way alternative: Cranachan. Main danger: Cranachan — Cranachan (SR:92, 3/1) is the highest-rated horse in the field, has a confirmed DistFit:+ at today's 1m4f trip — the only runner with that credential — and Hector Crouch's 17% strike rate makes this a serious each-way proposition if the blinkers sharpen a horse who ran 4th last time.
