Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 26–29 bookmakers per horse with the 81% 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-partyThe Dara Man tops our figures by a clear margin in a maximum field of eighteen at Killarney, and although he is winless in this sequence, a much-improved third last time out suggests a horse finding his form again. Those closest to him on our figures represent the biggest threats to that superiority, while a 47-day break leaves a slight fitness question. On balance, The Dara Man remains our selection, though with such a big and competitive field, our conviction in that call is low.
