TrackLab Insight
Market favourite at 4.3 despite seven races without a win, but the form is honest — three places from seven starts means this horse competes and finishes in the mix. Recent second at Sligo 26 days ago suggests he's still knocking on the door, though his inability to convert into wins after this long suggests he may need everything to fall perfectly right.

TrackLab Insight
Second-favourite at 4.5 with eight races and one place finish to his name, but that single place is telling — it means he's shown glimpses without ever quite getting there. Recent fifth at Punchestown suggests he's in the mix on his day, making him a genuine danger if things fall right.

TrackLab Insight
Won at Wexford just 15 days ago and was second there 35 days before that — the only recent course winner in this field and perfectly suited by good ground on this track. At eight years old with 41 races to his name, this horse knows what he's doing and his 10% career win rate is built on consistency on tracks like this.

TrackLab Insight
Carries the lowest weight in the field but is winless from 14 races and was 9th at Wexford just 15 days ago — light weight alone won't fix the underlying form problem. Three places in 14 attempts tells you she's capable of finishing in the frame occasionally, but hasn't come close to winning.

TrackLab Insight
The only horse in this field with a meaningful win rate — winning roughly one in every six races — and she's won twice in her last three starts at Sligo and Limerick. A seven-year-old mare who has finally found her form just recently, though her most recent outing was a fading eighth at Sligo.

Won 0 of last 5 Raced here before
TrackLab Insight
An eight-year-old with five races and no wins or places on her record — the sort of profile that says she's racing but not competing at the level required. Her most recent fourth at Ballinrobe is her best effort in recent memory, but it's still a long way from the judge.

TrackLab Insight
Placed in two of his last three races, most recently third at Kilbeggan 14 days ago, suggesting this six-year-old is starting to piece things together after nine outings without a win. His recent form trajectory is the best story in the field after years of struggling, but he's still unproven at this level.

TrackLab Insight
Four races, four defeats, and never raced on normal ground — that's a damning combination for a five-year-old mare at Wexford today. The best she's managed is fourth place, and her recent form of 7-6-4-11 shows her struggling to get competitive even when running.

TrackLab Insight
Twenty races, zero wins, and now 10th at Killarney just 22 days ago — this six-year-old mare is still searching for that elusive breakthrough after years without finding it. Three places from 20 attempts tells you she occasionally runs well enough to touch the frame, but consistency and winning are two different things.

TrackLab Insight
Lightly raced with just three career outings and still searching for his first place finish, but the trend is encouraging — 10th, then 14th, now 8th shows he's finding his feet. At three races in, he's got time to develop, but needs a significant step forward to trouble this field.

TrackLab Insight
Four races without a win or place finish, most recently 11th at Kilbeggan and 13th at Punchestown, marks this five-year-old mare as a horse still searching for her level. The 41.0 odds are about right for a horse who has finished no better than 11th in any of her recent outings.

TrackLab Insight
Absent for 105 days — the longest absence in the field — and carrying a 41.0 price despite a rating above field average, which tells you the market has serious doubts. Five races without a win or place finish, and a pulled-up run in her record, suggests Thurman is a long way from being competitive at this level.

TrackLab Insight
Pulled up just yesterday at Wexford and unplaced in five career races, with 41.0 odds reflecting the market's view that he's way out of his depth. Racing on his home track just days after failing to finish is unlikely to change the narrative.

TrackLab Insight
Four races, four finishes in double figures — a 5-year-old who has never once threatened to trouble the judge in any outing. At 61.0 odds and heading nowhere on recent evidence, this horse is running out of chances to prove he belongs at this level.

TrackLab Insight
Lowest rated in the field at 77 (7lbs below average) and pulled up just yesterday at Kilbeggan — a clear signal that this five-year-old is struggling badly at present. Ten races without a win or place finish, and a recent run that saw him fail to complete, tells you he's the worst prospect here.

TrackLab Insight
Relatively inexperienced at just four career races with two places to show, but his most recent 10th at Kilbeggan and his 12th before that suggest he's going backwards. The 4-year-old is young enough to learn, but these results don't inspire confidence at this stage.

TrackLab Insight
The only horse who has won at this distance and course combination, most experienced in the field with 43 races, and rated 14lbs above field average — but he was 14th at Sligo just yesterday. At ten years old, he's got the profile and knows this track, yet his recent form has been poor despite having won here before, making him a puzzle rather than the obvious choice the odds suggest.

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.
