🤖 AI race preview

The Mean Fiddler leads in pace and shape with a strong recent record of second-place finishes in 5f conditions, showing clear progression from a 6f novice outing where he pressed the winner and maintained composure under pressure—his RPR of 87 and OFR of 79 suggest a well-balanced, competitive effort despite a draw of 3. He is the standout in form, having consistently raced with intent and improved in tempo, and with a clean record of performance in good to firm going, making him the hardest to oppose in a field where only one other runner has a clear run in the 128lb bracket. Calef presents a notable danger with a solid 67 OFR and recent showing at Chepstow, where he jinked and unseated a rider, while Sable Noir, making her first appearance with a hood, offers a value at the forecast price due to her debut struggles and potential for a surprise turn in the closing stages.
