🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be contested in a steady tempo with Whats New the most consistent in form and position, having twice finished second in quality company at Sligo and Bellewstown, with a solid RPR of 117 and a strong 162lb weight that suits the ground. He is the standout performer, having shown resilience in second positions with clear run-in ability, and his recent run at Sligo where he held off a strong field despite being beaten just 2 lengths by a 115-rated rival, makes him the hardest to oppose in a field where most runners have limited hurdle experience or form. The main danger comes from Sharu, who showed a tendency to struggle in the run-in at Kilbeggan despite a strong second-place finish, and No Mon No Fun, who has shown improvement in recent runs but remains hampered by a lack of consistency and a poor run-in in his debut. Middlethird Marvel and Breezingwithdstars are worth a second look as first-time hurdlers with headgear changes and limited form, offering each-way value in a field where pace and positioning will be key.
