🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to see a steady tempo from the front, with Enamored in the inside stall offering a strong early presence despite a lack of recent form, her RPR of 80 and 128lbs suggesting she can hold her own under pressure. Too Many Spirits stands out on form, having finished second in two of his last three starts with consistent RPRs of 72 and 81, including a narrow win at Pontefract in April, and his pedigree and draw of 6 position him as a hard-to-oppose contender. The main dangers are Little Mester, who rallied well in his Leicester run despite a poor finish, and Tzaritza, who showed signs of improvement at Newbury despite a late weakening, both of whom could make a late surge from the back. Purple Dream, a high-pedigree 2yo with a promising RPR and half-sister to multiple winners, is a value at the forecast price and worth a second look as an each-way player.
