🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to see a moderate to early tempo with Winchurch and Spirit Of Applause positioned to influence the early run, given their recent form and draw advantage; Winchurch, drawing from the centre, has shown resilience in recent outings with a strong RPR of 81 and a solid 138lb weight, having finished fourth in a similar contest just 12 days ago despite an awkward start, and is hard to oppose in a field where pace is expected to be consistent. Spirit Of Applause, though with a lower OFR, has produced a fourth at Beverley in good ground just 16 days ago with a mid-to-late midfield position and strong headway, and his recent run suggests he can hold ground under pressure, making him a strong contender. The main danger comes from Beaumadier, who made a solid third at Thirsk in good ground recently and has shown ability to make the running under Hope Regan, while Muker, despite a poor run form and low TS, remains a value at the forecast price due to his recent 8yo form and a 136lb weight that may suit the going. Miss Brazen, with a recent third at Beverley and a solid RPR, is worth a second look as a potential each-way player given her consistent performances in C&D conditions.
