Comanche Brave (IRE) won the 16:35 Newmarket at SP 12.00. Ridden by Billy Loughnane. Trained by Donnacha Aidan O'Brien.
No — the AI top pick (Satono Reve) finished 3.
Top finishers: 1. Comanche Brave (IRE) (12.00), 2. Venetian Sun (IRE) (7.00), 3. Satono Reve (JPN) (3.00).
The winning time was 1m 9.99s.
Almeraq is our selection, preferred ahead of the higher-rated Satono Reve on the strength of a more progressive profile. His recent form, fitness and fit with today's conditions all support his claims in a competitive Class 1 sprint. Satono Reve, Big Mojo and Venetian Sun all pose danger, with Big Mojo matching our selection on figures. Confidence in the pick is only medium given the strength and depth of this field.
Racing Post pick: Almeraq
