Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 31 bookmakers per horse with the 18% 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-partyDark Side Thunder is our selection, the highest-rated runner in this Class 6 six-furlong contest on a figure of 71. Startled Lady (67) and Viking Glory (64) are the chief dangers on our figures, with Superstorm (61) also difficult to rule out from a competitive half-dozen. The ratings are tightly bunched here so confidence in the selection is low, but Dark Side Thunder gets the verdict as our pick.
