Racing Post verdict
Third-partyJust An Hour is the selection at Newbury on the back of the best figure in this even-looking eight-runner race. Caph Star and Lerwick sit only around four pounds behind on our book, both close enough to feature, while One Cool Dreamer trails by around seven pounds but is still capable of running into the frame. The gaps are tight rather than decisive, making this a medium-confidence verdict, though Just An Hour holds a genuine if modest advantage on figures.
