🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be run at a moderate tempo with early pace from the front-runners, and the draw positions of 3 (Sapphire Sun) and 5 (Tidal Blue) suggest potential for early challenge, though both lack recent form. Zoar stands out as the most compelling performer, having delivered a strong second in a class-level contest at Naas on good ground where he raced far side and challenged in the final furlong, with a solid RPR of 87 and a clean run under Chris Hayes, marking a significant step up from his debut. The main dangers are Roeillaun, who showed promise in a 50-1 surprise at the Curragh despite a poor ground and form drop, and Panhandle, who despite a poor debut at Navan, has been in fine yard form and could exploit a potential gap in the closing stages. Each-way value is available in the lower RPR group, with Tidal Blue and Miss Cashman Hooke offering pedigree appeal and potential for a surprise finish.
