TrackLab Insight
The market favourite at 3.75, yet he's been absent for 109 days — by far the longest absence in the field — and his last six races show a string of defeats without a single win. With just one career win from ten races and a complete absence of wins on normal ground, the odds underestimate the risk of returning from a four-month layoff into a competitive race.
Absent 109 days (longest in field)
Market favourite (3.75)

TrackLab Insight
The only course winner in the field with a proven Haydock record (1 win from 2 races), and she's in sharp form with a second place just seven days ago — she's running again immediately. At eight years old with steady form across distance, she's battle-hardened, but the 0.8-length defeat at Musselburgh suggests stamina may be narrowing her chances at this trip.
Only course winner (1 from 2 here)
Runs again after just 7 days
TrackLab Insight
Only 0.2 lengths behind the winner last time at Chester and wins roughly 1 in 6 races with a solid 16% career win rate — better than most here. He handles both normal and soft ground well and fits the 1m3f–1m4f range, though at 1m 6f he's stretching beyond his sweet spot and faces a 27-day layoff.
One of the more successful in the field (5 career wins)
TrackLab Insight
Second place at Newbury just 15 days ago shows current form, and he's the only horse in the field with a winning record on normal ground — 1 win from 5 starts. However, he's a maiden at this trip and has run in just 12 races total, making his experience lighter than several rivals despite showing respectable recent consistency.
Best record on this ground (1 from 5)
Good Value
TrackLab Insight
Placed in 2 of his last 3 races, showing he's in touch with the action, and has a winning record at this distance (1m6f–2m) where he wins roughly 1 in 4 times. The problem: he's never won on normal ground in 14 attempts and struggles on both soft and firm surfaces, making Haydock's conditions particularly unsuitable.

Trainer Quotes
Oct 2025
"He's another legend who loves his work; the more you give him the better. His winning form coincided with fitting a tongue-strap, but also figuring out you have to ride him cold. When he's been ridden a bit closer to the pace, he doesn't necessarily finish. He's risen 20lb in the handicap this year but was unlucky three runs ago at Catterick, where he bumped into an improving three-year-old. 29-10-25"
TrackLab Insight
The standout on credentials — he wins roughly 1 in 5 races (21%, best in the field) and has three consecutive top-3 finishes — but he's been off the track for 100 days and managed only 17th at Newcastle most recently, suggesting ring rust will be hard to shake. His win at 1m 6f came at Southwell, not on turf like Haydock, and he has a serious weakness on normal ground where he's never won.
Best record at this trip (1 from 3)
3 straight top-3 finishes
Best career win rate in field (1 in 5)
Good Value
TrackLab Insight
Just won at Epsom eight days ago and steps up two classes here — a bold move that hinges on his proven strength at 1m1f–1m2f distances, where he wins roughly 2 in 5 races. The danger is Haydock's right-handed galloping track, where he's never won in seven attempts, and he's struggled on good-to-soft ground, which sits between his wet and fast-ground preferences.
Steps up 2 classes
TrackLab Insight
Rated 11 pounds below the field average and carrying the lightest weight, this four-year-old is outclassed for this step up in company at a Class 5 level. His sole winning record comes on normal ground (2 wins from 13 starts), but a recent fourth at Wolverhampton was close and he's never failed to place without showing some promise — a budget option with limited upside.

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.
