Everyoneknowsadave has a solid profile, having won five starts back and finished second three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 78 ranks him third of 11, but a sixth last time out and an eighth before that are the worry.
AI verdict

SR 71 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Mao Shang Wong arrives in good heart after a third last time out and a second two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 78 ranks him second of 11, but he is yet to win in his last six starts.

Optician is our top-rated runner and arrives fresh from a run 12 days ago, having finished second two starts back and third three starts back, with experience of today's trip and going. He is yet to win in recent starts, but our rating of 82 gives him a narrow edge in this field.

SR 72 suggests ability but 9/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Sigliosa arrives fit after 15 days, with a fourth last time out and a third two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 78 sits above his official 73, though he is winless in his last five starts, which is the main risk.

Fourth last time out and a third two starts back, after back-to-back wins four and five starts back, so she arrives in solid shape just 12 days after her last run. She has run over today's trip and going, but 133 lb from draw 7 and a sixth-of-eleven ranking in our ratings suggest a midfield finish.

Celestias Comet showed up well when second last time out, three weeks ago, and has run over today's trip and going, though a seventh two starts back and a mixed record around her one win in six leave her short of standout. Our rating of 77 puts her fifth of 11, carrying 132 lb from stall 9.

Twilight Moon was fourth last time out and has finished third, fifth and sixth twice in her other recent starts bar a win six starts back, so she's hard to fancy. She has run over today's trip and going and gets 131 lb from stall 11, but a 49-day break and a ninth-ranked rating of 73 keep her on the fringes.

Pomme Pomme has run over today's trip and going, and a third four starts back shows some ability, but she's yet to win in her last six and was eighth last time out. Drawn two and rated 73 by us, she looks a midfield sort.
AI verdict

SR 45 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 33/1.

Rodoya is hard to fancy: she is winless in her last five, finishing eighth in three of them, and her yard is out of form at 1/20 over the last 14 days. On the plus side, she has run over today's trip and going, and a fifth last time out came 21 days ago.

Golspie was fourth last time out and a winner two starts back, with thirds three, four and six runs ago, so he's rarely far away, and he has run over today's trip and going. Even so, our rating of 73 ranks him tenth of 11, and a modest speed figure of 68 makes him hard to fancy from stall 3.

SR 63 suggests ability but 14/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Celestias Comet
Confidence: Medium

Celestias Comet (SR:80, 4/1) is the highest-rated horse in the field and carries a relatively light 9-6, giving her a meaningful SR-per-pound edge over rivals. The market has backed her in 29% since opening — the strongest steam in the race — and trainer James Fanshawe (18% strike rate, one of the stronger yards here) has clearly targeted this. She has course form (W1P1 at Southwell), proven distance fitness (DistFit:+), and a form line of 655172 where the most recent figure is a close second, suggesting she is hitting peak condition. The ClassMv:= signal means she is not being asked to step up, and while GoingFit:~ is not ideal, the AW surface at Southwell on Good largely mitigates going concerns. Each-way alternative: Mao Shang Wong. Main danger: Mao Shang Wong — Mao Shang Wong (SR:77, 5/1) has been backed in 21%, has proven distance fitness (DistFit:+), sits with a strong jockey booking in Cieren Fallon (18% strike rate), and David O'Meara's yard (13%, nearly 3,000 runners) rarely runs without purpose when the market follows.

Case against 3
  • Form sequence 655172 shows three poor runs (6th, 5th, 5th) before the placed effort — inconsistency raises doubt she can reproduce that close second on demand.
  • GoingFit:~ on a surface rated Good at Southwell AW is a flagged concern; her course win/place may have come under different conditions that suit her better.
  • Jockey David Egan posts only a 14% strike rate — modest for a fancied runner — and the horse carries headgear flag (h) with no prior headgear noted in rivals, suggesting a behavioural/tractability qu…
