TrackLab Insight
The market favourite and the horse the race preview singles out, having won his most recent race at Windsor with what was described as a good attitude. He's never raced on normal ground, but he arrives in the best form of any runner here and has top jockey Hollie Doyle in the saddle. The key question is whether he can back it up on unfamiliar ground.

Crucially, this horse has never raced on normal ground before, so today is an unknown test of conditions. The win at Kempton was encouraging, but a distant eighth at Windsor just 18 days later raises questions, and the jockey-trainer partnership has produced just one win from 19 races together.

Finished second at this very course last season before going on to win, which is a promising sequence — but she hasn't raced in over six months and this is a new jockey's first ride on her. She also has no experience of normal ground conditions, making today something of a step into the unknown despite that solid underlying form.

Trainer Quotes
May 2026
"She won at Catterick on her final start of last season. She did her final piece of work the other day and worked very nicely. I think she's quite handily weighted - and she has grown in strength over the winter. She'll get 6f no problem but I think we'll start her over 5f. She could run quite well on her seasonal debut, which could be this week, probably at Bath. She's run there before and finished second. 20-05-26"

Her one win in 11 races came on ground like today's, making her the most course-condition-suited runner in the field on paper. However, she hasn't raced for 142 days and finished seventh last time out, beaten six lengths. The odds drifting sharply suggest the market isn't convinced she returns in top shape.

Finished a well-beaten 16th at Ascot just 14 days ago, which is a deeply discouraging recent effort even accounting for the step up in class that Ascot typically represents. She has shown she can compete at a decent level — a second in Class 2 at Nottingham is on her record — but that form feels a long way away right now. At 23/1, the market has little interest.
One of the more successful in the field (1 career wins)

TrackLab Insight
No wins from five races, but she has placed twice and her best efforts came right here at Bath and at Thirsk, so she's shown she can run her race when conditions suit. She's never raced on normal ground, and after a 214-day break, fitness is the obvious concern. The jockey-trainer partnership is the most experienced in the field together, which could count for something.

Seven races into his career and still waiting for a first win — he is the only runner in the field yet to break his duck despite plenty of opportunities. He also finished sixth at Windsor 18 days ago, the same race Our Guy won, which puts his current level firmly in perspective. Hard to make a case for him.
Mid-range in the market (7.5)
Compare Odds
TrackLab Insight
The bluntest assessment in the field: six races, no wins, no places, and the longest absence of any runner here at 235 days. Her last three runs were in Ireland, finishing 12th, 7th, and 9th, and she comes into this race with the least encouraging profile of any horse in the line-up. There is very little in the data to work with.

She carries the lowest weight in the field and is rated 6lbs below the average, which reflects the gap she needs to close on several rivals. That said, she won at Wolverhampton as recently as 66 days ago and has a strong record on standard ground — two wins from eight races on this type of surface. The drop back from a ninth at Lingfield is a concern, but the weight allowance could help.

The most experienced horse in the field by some distance — 17 races compared to a field average of 8 — and the best career win rate here at roughly one win in every six races. The problem is he's running again just four days after finishing eighth at Lingfield, and his last three runs read 9-5-8, which is poor. Hard to fancy despite the experience.

How do odds work?
The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
