Furlong's verdict
Reading the form…
AI-written, grounded in our data on this race. May be wrong. Verify before staking. Opinion, not advice.
Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Revoir
Revoir heads this nine-runner Class 1 over twelve furlongs at Newmarket on good-to-firm ground, sitting a pound clear of Miss Justice and two ahead of Francophone on our assessments, and she holds strong claims on those figures. Miss Justice represents the most pressing threat and will need to be watched closely throughout, while Francophone's proven form on this ground makes her a genuine player if producing her best. Orionis, rated seven pounds below our selection, is a live each-way contender given the quality of this field. **Revoir** is our selection.
