🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to see a moderate-to-fast tempo with early pressure from midfield contenders, and Emiza stands out as the most consistent performer in recent form, having finished second at Dundalk under similar conditions and showing strong late-running ability in her last outing, where she pressed the leader over the final furlong despite being behind. Her 91 RPR and 129lbs carry weight, and the absence of a headgear change suggests a more natural rhythm, while her draw of 7 places her in a favourable position to challenge from the middle. The main dangers are Chapel Lane, who posted a strong second at Killarney with headway from over 1f out and a 134lbs burden, and Elusive Path, who has shown resilience in soft going and a 79 RPR, with a 5th-place finish at Limerick suggesting a potential for a late surge. Each-way appeal is present in the lower-rated runners like Riyazanka and Wooloongabba, with the latter’s 13th-place finish at Navan and 129lbs making him a value at the forecast price.
