🤖 AI race preview

A slow-to-mid tempo is likely given the course and going, with Almekarem and First Officer both positioned to challenge early, though the draw and recent form suggest Almekarem’s potential to make appeal from off the pace. Almekarem stands out with a strong recent win at Lingfield under improved going and a significant weight reduction, backed by a solid RPR of 99 and a 135lb mark, while his return to 1m4f after a win in a shorter distance suggests he may be well-suited to this test; his headgear change and form in small fields add to his credibility. First Officer presents a clear danger with consistent second-place finishes in recent outings, including a solid performance at Newmarket under Alexandra Egan, and his 124lb weight and 100 RPR suggest he could stay in contention. Greek Order, despite a lack of recent progress, offers a value at the forecast price due to his form in prior runs, while Haku remains a long-shot each-way player with a history of poor grass performances and a significant gap in recent action.
