The market's favourite despite carrying the lowest weight and being rated 3lbs below the field average — punters are clearly backing recent momentum, and fairly so, given he won at Doncaster just 18 days ago. The catch is that he has never won on normal ground in four attempts, only on faster conditions, and he steps up in class today, so the clock may be ticking on whether that Doncaster confidence translates here.

The pick of the analysts, and it's his record specifically on dry ground that underpins that — four wins from 17 races on this type of surface, the best ground record in the field. He does jump up three classes today compared to recent runs, and his last six results make for uncomfortable reading, but on fast turf over five furlongs he has the credentials none of his rivals can quite match.

"His win at York in June meant a lot to us as it's our local course and the owners have an apartment in the old Terry's Chocolate factory, which overlooks the track. He beat Jm Jungle that day and that form looks even better now. The handicapper has got his measure a bit and he's been unlucky with his draws in recent races. He'll go back to York for the final meeting there but he needs quick ground. He won't go to Bahrain this time as he didn't travel well there last year. 01-10-25"

The youngest horse in the field with just ten races under his belt, and his one win came on ground faster than today's conditions — he has never won on normal ground in five attempts, which is a real concern here. He's been consistently competitive lately, finishing third at Goodwood and fourth at Newmarket, but the ground profile working against him means he needs to prove he can translate that form onto this surface.

"He's had three runs and ran well when third in a 6f maiden at Windsor last time. He had a little problem, so he couldn't run when he was due to at Bath this month - he pulled a little muscle but he's fine now. I think we'll probably go to the Super Sprint with him. 02-07-25"

The most experienced horse in the field by a country mile — 68 races compared to a field average of 24 — and rated highest at OR 74, yet the market has almost entirely deserted him, drifting to 5.6 from a morning price of 1.04. The problem is this dry Nottingham surface: he has never won on normal or faster ground in 12 attempts, with all his best form coming on softer conditions or all-weather tracks.

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.
