🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be run at a moderate tempo with early pace from the front-runners, particularly Sirius and Shosholoza, who both show consistent headway in yielding conditions and have strong recent form on the turf. Sirius stands out with a solid RPR of 69, a recent second in a heavy race at the Curragh, and a clean run in a 1W/2R contest where he held up in the rear before making strong ground over the final furlong — a pattern suggesting he can make a late surge despite a draw of 4. The main dangers are Absurde, making his first appearance in a Q.R. race with a promising RPR of 86 and a recent second at Cork, and Narlita, who has shown improvement in recent outings with a 3rd in soft-to-heavy conditions and a consistent headgear of p, though his draw of 9 and lack of recent form in this class present a slight concern. Hunters Run, making his first start in a Q.R.
