🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be a mid-to-far-side tempo with Cool Azul and Jon Riggens forming the early pace, both showing consistency in good-to-yielding conditions and strong recent form, though Cool Azul’s 134lbs and 89 RPR suggest a slight edge in stamina and balance. Cool Azul stands out as the most compelling performer, having secured a first-place finish at Navan just nine days ago under a strong headway and clean running, with a 77 TS and 89 RPR indicating a well-rounded, resilient effort despite a minor draw of 2; his recent performance at Roscommon and consistent course record in good ground make him a hard-to-oppose contender. The main danger comes from Mary Shoelaces, who has shown strong late-running ability and a 66 OR in a recent win at Curragh, while Gotta Catchem All, with a 73 OR and a 2nd-place finish in a similar race just days ago, presents a sharp late surge threat on a 11 draw. All The Girls and Smoke Them Out, both with recent headgear changes and improved RPRs, offer value at the forecast price as each-way players.
