🤖 AI race preview

Depalma stands out as the most consistent performer in recent form, having secured a first win in a Class 4 chase at Newton Abbot under pipping conditions and maintaining a strong RPR of 115 despite a slight drop in class, with a clear headway and finish in a competitive field. His recent run at Bangor-on-Dee saw him lead after 2 out and hold the advantage through the final stretch, suggesting a sound ability to contest the pace and maintain position under pressure. Kilworth, though with a higher RPR and a strong showing at Ascot, has shown inconsistency in recent outings, particularly in soft ground, while Senator’s form is promising but lacks a clear breakthrough in tough conditions. The main danger comes from Senator, who has consistently raced in the front and shown resilience in soft going, and Ignore The Door, a first-time trial with headgear, who may offer a surprise in the early stages despite a long gap in action.
