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: Rahmi
Rahmi rates 3 lb below Benevento on our figures, but it is the progressive profile that tips the scales in his favour here over this good-to-firm eight furlongs at Gowran Park — a horse still on an upward curve is more valuable than a static rating suggests. Benevento is the obvious principal danger as the top-rated runner in the field, and Celtic Motif and Anushka will not be without their chances if either outperforms their rating on the day. This is a competitive enough puzzle and confidence is modest, but the upside in Rahmi's profile just edges the argument. **Rahmi** is our selection.
