Racing Post verdict
Third-partyTheoryofeverything heads this Ayr Class 4 contest on a rating narrowly ahead of Bravais, and the form behind that pair drops away meaningfully, giving our selection a clear case on merit. Trained to tackle this good-ground mile, Theoryofeverything looks the most credible performer in the field and should be capable of asserting if producing a performance in line with that figure. Bravais is the most obvious threat just a pound behind, while Walsingham and Milteye will need to find improvement to bridge the gap. **Theoryofeverything** is our selection.
