AI-written, grounded in our data on this race. May be wrong. Verify before staking. Opinion, not advice.
Sam's Xpress heads our figures and has a record suggesting he comes alive after a break — 99 days off puts that theory to the test. Rogue Bullet is the obvious rival, back to form last time though a penalty now raises the bar, while Ancient State and Kiss And Run complete a competitive trio of dangers. Sam's Xpress is our selection.
