Alfred Tennyson (IRE) won the 18:10 Gowran Park at SP 7.50. Ridden by J M Sheridan. Trained by Denis Gerard Hogan.
No — the AI top pick (Ohailbhic) was a non-runner or unplaced.
Top finishers: 1. Alfred Tennyson (IRE) (7.50), 2. Tokyo Treasure (IRE) (5.50), 3. Morehampton (IRE) (6.50).
The winning time was 1m 26.60s.
Morehampton heads this 13-runner field at Gowran Park on good-to-firm ground, sitting narrowly ahead of Bundle Of Interest and Alfred Tennyson, who share the same rating just two pounds back. Summer Snow also warrants respect as a lively outsider in what is a competitive seven-furlong contest. The main dangers are real, and the margin for error is slim, but Morehampton's edge at the top of the ratings gives a slender case for preference. **Morehampton** is our selection.
Racing Post pick: Morehampton
