One book stands out from the de-overrounded consensus of 29 bookmakers. A price check, not a tip — the market can be wrong about a horse.

Model testThis race is on v1.0's public test card: Ghost Jury advised 11/2·6.40 (Smarkets), frozen at publication — win or lose, it stays on the ledger.

Pundit pick: Bound For GloryDiffers from our pick

Bound For Glory lines up narrowly behind the top-rated Bannister on these figures, but it is a progressive profile that makes our selection the more appealing proposition over this stamina-testing twenty-furlong trip at Worcester on good ground. Bannister represents the chief danger and cannot be dismissed lightly, while Crafty Gael and Royal Rhythm also enter the calculations for the minor honours. On balance, though, a horse still moving forward through the ranks is preferred here, and Bound For Glory is our selection.

OR = official rating · AI = model score (0–100) · form reads oldest → latest · Fair= the market's own consensus: median price across 20–30 bookmakers per horse with the 61% overround stripped out. A green best price pays above that consensus — a price check, not a tip: the market can be wrong about a horse, this only tells you when a book stands out from it.
