🤖 AI race preview

The pace is likely to be steady to mid-tempo with a potential early lead from North Shore or Lord Byron, both with strong recent form in good-to-soft conditions and consistent RPRs, though North Shore’s first-time appearance at Cheltenham and recent stumble in a rear position at Chepstow raise caution. Indian River stands out with a solid run at Market Rasen and Aintree, showing improved headway and resilience in softer going, and despite a class drop, his 134 OFR and 146 RPR suggest he can hold ground in the midfield and make appeal through the run-in. The main danger comes from In The Minus, who has shown consistent late strength in recent outings, particularly with a win at Sligo, while Lord Byron, though not fluent in his Chepstow run, remains a value at the forecast price with a 147 OFR and recent improvement in yield. Tunisya, with a low RPR and TS, is a long shot but worth a second look as an each-way player at the price.
