6F Class 2. Nine Runners
A very hard race to analyse because of a lack of early pace but Expert Opinion has led before under sufferance when nothing else wanted to so could do the same here and anything with an uncontested lead can be dangerous but its rating on the AW tracks is relatively slow and its not made the frame in 4 attempts on grass. Silver Samurai doesn't like really fast ground but they are prone to over watering here as the river Thames runs alongside the course so it cant be discounted until I've seen the going for myself. Dora Penny is my 4th top rated using a 2022 course and distance rating and Aphelios my joint 2nd top rated also recorded its best figure here last year, the other joint 2nd top rated is Lethal Nymph who showed its best at Doncaster last year so maybe this course doesn't suit it as well as a relatively flat course. My money will be riding on the top weight TANMAWWY 11/4 who if capable of reproducing its best rating from last year would be winning this race a shade cosily, the trainer does well here and the jockey booking looks a significant one.
Tanmawwy 11/4 1st +2.75pts
Total on the day +2.75pts
