Confidence
Medium · Tier B
How the race should unfoldTwo horses look keen to lead, and the fight for the front is likely to tire them out, setting things up for horses racing just behind - a group that includes the favourite.
1
Golden Strike
The favourite finished a close second at a higher level last time and drops in class today, with the same jockey who has won on him before.
40% / 41%
2
Masaban
Masaban won last time out and is popular in the betting, but the handicapper has raised his mark, leaving little room for improvement.
27% / 21%
3
Diamont Katie
Diamont Katie's trainer has a notably strong record at this course, which helps make up for form that has been just moderate.
10% / 9%
4
Beyond The Bar
Beyond The Bar looks likely to set the pace and has won over this course and distance before, though recent form has been fading.
6% / 10%
5
Lady Gormire
Lady Gormire has won at this course and distance before and has an excuse for her last run, but her stable is out of form.
4% / 6%
Red flags
The favourite's price has drifted slightly this morning, showing the market isn't fully backing it.The field is fairly small, so treat the confidence level with some caution.Masaban's price has already tightened sharply after his last win, leaving little value there.
