🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be run at a moderate to firm tempo with early leaders expected from the front half, particularly from Hexagonal, who has shown consistent ability in recent runs and is positioned in the top draw, with a strong RPR of 73 and a solid showing in a similar distance at Roscommon. Hexagonal makes appeal as the most complete performer on form, having won at the same course and distance in a recent run with a strong RPR and a clear run in the early stages, despite a slight drop in class, and is a hard-to-oppose presence in the field. The main danger comes from Darkdeserthighway, who has shown consistent midfield strength and headway over the final furlong, and from Sinbad My Dad, who has improved in recent outings with a strong RPR and a recent second-place finish, both of whom could challenge in the closing stages. First-time headgear entries like Chestnut Palace and Solomon, while lacking recent form, offer each-way value due to their draw and potential to make a late surge.
