🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be paced in a steady, midfield-driven tempo with early leaders expected to establish a consistent headway, favouring runners with recent form in good-to-yielding conditions and strong RPRs; Harpy Eagle stands out with a consistent performance in the midfield, having recorded two second-place finishes in recent outings on good ground, backed by a solid 107 OFR and 135 RPR, and a clear improvement in headway from 3 out, suggesting a resilient, forward-leaning style. The main danger comes from Boo Radley, who showed early prominence and headway in his most recent win at Kilbeggan, and from Take The Free, a first-time hurdle performer with a strong recent showing at Ballinrobe despite a poor finish, offering a notable each-way appeal due to his low draw and recent form.
