TrackLab Insight
The market favourite despite never having raced before, which tells you the betting public has faith in the team behind this horse. Jockey Hollie Doyle and trainer Archie Watson have combined to win roughly 1 in 6 races together — a solid partnership — and the father Kodi Bear was a sharp early-speed horse whose offspring tend to hit the ground running. Like several others today, this is a debut, so the confidence has to come from what has been seen in training rather than on the track.
Racecourse debut
Market favourite (2.66)
TrackLab Insight
The one horse in this field the race editorial has specifically flagged as interesting — he finished sixth at Newbury less than two weeks ago in what is considered a strong debut for two-year-olds, meaning the standard he faced there was likely higher than he meets today. He carries less weight than most rivals, which is a small advantage over six furlongs. Of the horses with racing experience here, his form from Newbury arguably reads the best in context.
Never raced on normal ground
Lightly raced (1 career races)
TrackLab Insight
Finished seventh on debut at Doncaster a month ago, beaten over eight lengths, making him the horse with the most time between races among those who have already run. Like El Lambo and Greek Street, he has never raced on this type of artificial surface before, so today is another unknown. His debut result was the furthest back of the three horses with prior experience, which makes it hard to make a case for him on form alone.
Never raced on normal ground
Lightly raced (1 career races)
TrackLab Insight
Racing for the first time today, and notably the only horse in the field who is not a colt — she carries the lowest weight alongside Dakota Brave and Potters Liberty, which is a small built-in advantage. Her father is Kodi Bear, the same sire as Alpe D'Huez also running today, known for producing quick, early-maturing horses. With no form to go on, she is a question mark, but her odds suggest the market does not expect her to trouble the front-runners.
Racecourse debut
TrackLab Insight
A first-time racer drawn in stall one, which is inside the low-draw bracket that historically performs best at this course and distance. Trainer Charlie Johnston runs a large and successful operation, though this particular jockey-trainer combination has very limited shared experience to draw on. There is no form to assess, so the draw is perhaps the most concrete positive thing to note here.
Racecourse debut
TrackLab Insight
Stepping onto a racecourse for the very first time, so there is absolutely nothing in the form book to go on. That said, the breeding turns heads — his father Zoustar was one of the fastest horses in Australia and has a strong record of producing winners on debut. The odds have drifted dramatically, which suggests those closest to the horse may not be expecting fireworks today.
Racecourse debut
TrackLab Insight
Another first-time racer with no form to assess, but the breeding is hard to ignore — his father Kameko won one of Britain's most prestigious races, the 2000 Guineas, in 2020. Trainer Sir Mark Prescott and jockey Luke Morris have a productive history together, winning roughly 1 in 6 races as a partnership. Like several others here today, everything is unknown until the race unfolds.
Racecourse debut
TrackLab Insight
Has one race behind him, finishing fifth and beaten nearly 15 lengths at Nottingham three weeks ago — not a sparkling start, but a single run at two years old means very little. This will be his first time racing on the normal artificial surface here at Lingfield, so it is genuinely unknown how he will handle it. Of the horses with actual racing experience in this field, his debut form looks the weakest on paper.
Never raced on normal ground
Lightly raced (1 career races)
TrackLab Insight
The longest-priced horse in the field at 34-to-1, making his racecourse debut with no form to assess and a jockey-trainer combination that has produced just 3 wins from 32 races together. His sire, Far Above, is a less high-profile name than those behind several rivals today. There is nothing in the data that points to him being a serious threat, and the market reflects that.

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.
