🤖 AI race preview

The pace is likely to be set by early leaders, with The Dotski and Fraher Field both showing consistent ability to hold position and press in midfield or early, though The Dotski’s recent form at Ballinrobe — where he led and ran on well under pressure — suggests he could take the early initiative. Astelia stands out on form, having won at Killarney recently under strong conditions and showing resilience in the second position at Listowel, with a solid RPR of 128 and a clean run-in that indicates she can hold her own under pressure, making her a hard-to-oppose contender. The main danger comes from Cleopatras Needle, who has shown improvement in recent runs despite a modest RPR, and Amanha, who has a strong recent showing at Tramore and carries a significant weight advantage that could see him challenge from the rear. Each-way value is present in both Cleopatras Needle and Amanha, with the latter’s first-time headgear and recent form offering a notable appeal.
