🤖 AI race preview

The pace is likely to be steady to moderate, with Starliner and Chuzzlewit both showing consistent ability to hold position and maintain rhythm over the distance, though Starliner’s recent form at Newcastle — including a second in a Class 5 race with a strong near-side presence — suggests he may be the early leader or at least a key figure in the early stages. Chuzzlewit stands out as the most compelling in recent form, having finished second in two of his last three runs at Newcastle, including a clear lead from over two furlongs out, with a solid RPR of 79 and a 135lb weight that reflects his competitive edge despite a class drop; his draw of 6 offers a slight positional disadvantage but his consistency and ability to press leaders make him a hard-to-oppose contender. The main danger comes from Look Back Smiling, a first-time starter who showed promise in a recent Cl6 run at Kempton with a strong headway and finishing well inside, and Whiskey Pete, who has demonstrated resilience in tough conditions and a tendency to improve late despite a lack of recent form. Each-way appeal is present in Second Fiddle and Relevant Range, with the latter showing a strong finish in a recent Cl6 at Doncaster despite a poor draw and a long-term distance mismatch.
