Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 31 bookmakers per horse with the 22% 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-partySir Yoshi is our selection, clear at the top of our figures in this Class 3 sprint despite a quieter recent sequence on bare results. The chief dangers are the trio closest to him on our figures, each boasting sharper recent form of their own. Confidence in the pick is low, reflecting how tightly this seven-runner field is bunched together. On balance, the figures make him the one to beat.
Racing Post pick: Sir Yoshi
