Furlong's verdict
Reading the form…
AI-written, grounded in our data on this race. May be wrong. Verify before staking. Opinion, not advice.
Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Bold Style
Bold Style is the highest-rated runner in this Killarney field over today's 8f and is our selection on that basis. The gap to Straight Up and Loughrea is workmanlike rather than emphatic, though, and Res Ipsa also has claims on our figures, which keeps confidence in this verdict on the low side. Straight Up and Loughrea look the most obvious dangers, with barely daylight between the leading trio. Bold Style remains our pick, but this has the look of a race that could easily throw up a surprise.
