🤖 AI race preview
The race is likely to be contested under a steady tempo with Mr Mcwhinny and Most Wanted forming the primary pace contenders, both having shown resilience in recent outings despite varying levels of form; Mr Mcwhinny, with a strong RPR of 101 and a solid performance at Uttoxeter where he took a keen hold and led multiple times, makes appeal as a well-held back runner with a clear ability to contest under a drop in trip and a favourable weight reduction. Most Wanted stands out on form, having improved markedly since his chase debut with a creditable third at Uttoxeter under pressure and a strong run at Fakenham, supported by a high RPR of 107 and a recent draw in the middle of the field, making him hard to oppose in a race where consistency and composure under challenge are key. The main danger comes from Sledgehammer, who showed promise with a fourth at Wexford on yielding ground and has a strong RPR, while Catchim, despite a poor showing at Stratford, remains a value at the forecast price with a strong RPR and recent form in mid-to-late positions. Fox Wallace, with a 5lb reduction and a recent poor run, is worth a second look as a first-time headgear entry in a field where early pace could be decisive.
