Why The Favourite Can Be Opposed

The market still matters, but the aim is to find where price and reality have drifted apart.

  • Market efficiency is running at 0%, so edge is still available if the reasoning is specific enough.
  • Available race evidence is 79% complete.

Back-to-back 2m3f wins here during the winter (good to soft/soft) but nothing like so effective in his last two races.

Only 13l off the Supreme fourth Baron Noir in a Uttoxeter maiden but tailed off and pulled up in his two handicaps on either side of a wind operation; should be capable of better.

Completed a hat-trick in handicap hurdles at about 2m3f (good to soft/soft) before finishing tailed off on her chase debut two months ago; even if back on song returned to hurdles, she's 10lb higher than for last win which was gained only narrowly.

2886P- Draw 0 OR 103 RPR 0 TS 0 +-53.0% EV +-4.8% Edge Data 82%

Two wins last spring on good ground included a 2m7f handicap off this very mark; clearly a contender if back to that level, though that's not been the case in her last four races.

53451- Draw 0 OR 101 RPR 0 TS 0 +27.4% EV +13.1% Edge Data 82%

Hadn't always looked straightforward so the new cheekpieces were probably a factor in his narrow defeat of an in-form rival at Plumpton (2m4f, good); still nicely treated off 3lb higher.

Won in a small field at Exeter (2m2f, good to firm) in October but holding his form is becoming troublesome; risky enough.

Winless since 2023 and he's been off the track since pulled up in 3m handicap in November; on a useful mark if resurgent after a break.

Useful Flat winner so he's been disappointing over hurdles, though has finished within 10l of the winner in his last two handicaps (2m4f/3m); a visor replaces cheekpieces and this aid did nothing for him on the Flat.

Some light at the end of the tunnel after a 13l defeat here in March (2m1f, good to soft) and this longer distance should suit as she's got a stout pedigree; quite interesting with that in mind.
