Racing Post verdict
Third-partyStenmark is the pick in this Class 5 contest over 8f at Chepstow, holding a clear advantage over this field on our figures and rated the most consistent of the principals. Echalar and Kodi Fire represent the biggest dangers, both within a handful of pounds of the selection, while Penelope Valentine cannot be entirely dismissed on her better efforts. Confidence is only low given how tightly matched this field looks, but Stenmark remains the one to beat on the figures presented.
Racing Post pick: Stenmark
