Worcester

Spanish Darling is the editorial selection and arrives with a fitness edge after just 12 days since finishing third at Worcester — the only course winner in the field would be this horse if it had won, but a strong debut form suggests real potential. Rated 2 lb behind Ebarayna on the figures, but fresher and more battle-hardened makes this the preferred choice.

Ebarayna is the top-rated horse by some margin and came agonisingly close on debut, finishing second by just 1.0L at Uttoxeter 42 days ago. The obvious threat to Spanish Darling, but fresher form and more recent racing make Spanish Darling the slight edge despite Ebarayna's superior figures.

Secret Jet Away is a debut runner at four years old with no form to assess, making it a complete unknown quantity. The Martin Keighley yard has a respectable 13 wins from 101 races, but there is nothing concrete to suggest this horse will hit the ground running.

Midnight Lexi is a debut runner trained by Dan Skelton, whose yard boasts 95 wins from 718 races — real pedigree and firepower. At 6.6 odds and with no form to guide us, this is a wild card from a stable that plainly knows how to win races.
