6/1 11/2 4/1
Consistent without being a winner, Kotari has finished third twice in recent starts and shaped with promise each time, making him a solid each-way threat, though the 84-day absence and a hefty 166 lb in the saddle are the risks to overcome.
AI verdict

SR 78 suggests ability but 13/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Third four starts back, Uncle Remus shaped better than his recent pulled-up effort suggests, and our rating of 95 marks him as the one to beat in this field; winless in his last five starts, he must bounce back quickly on just six days' rest.
AI verdict

SR 53 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 40/1.

7/4 Evs 18/13
Delgany Second Now arrives on the back of a win last time out, his trainer firing at 27% over the past fortnight, and that combination of form and yard confidence makes him a genuine threat here; the concern is a quick three-day turnaround carrying 159 lb.
AI verdict

SR 80 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Winless in his last five starts and returning after 100 days off, Onehundredneighty faces a stiff task here, ranked fifth of seven on our figures; third three starts back offers a crumb of encouragement, but the weight of 153 lb does him no favours.
AI verdict

SR 79 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Unexposed and yet to win in recent starts, North Account returns after 49 days carrying 150 lb, and with several runs still to come before his true level is known, there remains scope for improvement as he steps out again.

AI verdict

SR 77 suggests ability but 9/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Onehundredneighty
Confidence: Speculative

Onehundredneighty (SR:79, 6/4, Wgt:10-13) carries the lightest competitive weight among the SR-viable runners and has seen the most dramatic market support in the field — shortening 24% since opening — which in a small seven-runner novice handicap is a meaningful signal. The SR of 79 is second only to Delgany Second Now (80) but Onehundredneighty carries 6lb less than Delgany Second Now (11-5 vs 10-13), a significant edge in a hurdle race over 2m3f. Ben Pauling (20% strike rate, 107 runners) and Ben Jones (19%, 117 runners) are an in-form, competent combination, and the form string 0235-4 shows progressive placing before a recent fourth — consistent enough not to be dismissed. Delgany Second Now has drifted 26% from its morning price and has a GoingFit of minus on today's good ground, which undermines its favourite status despite the superior trainer profile. Each-way alternative: Wise Counsellor. Main danger: Delgany Second Now — Despite drifting 26% and a GoingFit of minus, Delgany Second Now's SR of 80 (highest in the field), Dan Skelton/Harry Skelton combination (21%/27% strike rates), and a last-run win on the form string make it the most likely alternative winner if the going suits better than the data suggests.

Case against 4 clamped
  • 100-day absence is the longest layoff in the field; the horse's most recent run was a fourth, and returning from 3+ months off without a spin is a notable freshness risk over 2m3f.
  • Form string 0235-4 shows the best placing (2nd, 3rd) came in bumpers/earlier starts — the most recent hurdle form is a fourth, suggesting the progression may have stalled at the jumping level.
  • Wise Counsellor (SR:77, 9/1) has drifted in 30% in the market despite similar SR, potentially drawing money away from the race narrative; if pace is set aggressively by freshly-run rivals (Delgany Se…
  • At 6/4 joint-favourite with no Going Fit flag shown but also no positive HG marker, the price offers minimal margin for error against Delgany Second Now who, despite drifting, boasts Dan & Harry Skel…
