Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 30 bookmakers per horse with the 31% overround stripped out. A green badge means the best book currently pays above that consensus — a price check, not a tip: the market can be wrong about a horse, this only tells you when a book stands out from it.
Racing Post verdict
Third-partyHaving done well to defy a penalty in a novice at Kempton, when he was carried right in the straight, LANGSTONE (nap) is the pick.
Racing Post pick: Langstone
