TrackLab Insight
The market favourite and top-rated horse in the field by 6lbs, which tells you the betting public think this race is his to lose. He won easily at Huntingdon just three days ago and carries a double penalty for that, but the editorial verdict says he's still well treated despite the extra weight — his trainer Dan Skelton and jockey Harry Skelton have won together more than 500 times, and they clearly believe he's worth running again quickly. The one flag: he's never won on normal ground conditions in seven attempts.

TrackLab Insight
The most experienced horse in the field by some distance — 43 races to everyone else's average of 20 — and crucially the only runner here with a win at this distance. Was beaten just over a length last time out at Ludlow, which keeps the form fresh, though his record on today's normal ground conditions is a concern: zero wins from four attempts on similar surfaces.

Trainer Quotes
Jan 2025
"I bought him very cheaply at £2,500. We were running him on the Flat but I think we've found the key to him now. He'll win on the Flat, but we've popped him over hurdles the last few times. He's been second and then won before Christmas at Lingfield, so he's going the right way. 01-01-25"

TrackLab Insight
On paper this horse has the best win rate in the field — winning roughly 1 in every 7 races — but context is everything: the last three completed runs have all been 8th-place finishes, including one that came nearly three years ago. The jump up two class levels from its most recent outing at Stratford makes this a tough ask, and there's little in the recent data to inspire confidence.

TrackLab Insight
Rated 16lbs below the field average — the lowest-rated horse here by a clear margin — and carries the lightest weight as a result, which is the one practical advantage in her favour. She pulled up last time out 56 days ago and has only won once in 14 races, though that victory came on ground similar to today's conditions. She needs everything to fall right, and a step back up in class doesn't help.

TrackLab Insight
Nine races in and still looking for a first win, and recent form makes that search look harder than ever — pulled up at Wetherby last time, and beaten nearly 33 lengths at Haydock before that. One of the least experienced horses in the field, and nothing in the data suggests a turnaround is imminent.

TrackLab Insight
The only horse in this field with a win at Worcester, which matters — course form is a real edge in hurdle races. However, his last three runs have been dire, finishing 7th, 12th, and 9th, and he has never won on today's ground conditions in five attempts, so that course record feels a long way in the past right now.

TrackLab Insight
Zero wins from 13 career races, one place to show for all that effort, and a pulled up finish last time out at Uttoxeter — the data here is bleak and it's honest to say so. This is the first time this jockey and trainer have teamed up together, which adds another layer of uncertainty, and at 51/1 the market agrees this looks like a big ask.
Winless from 13 career races

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.
