Race time recorded.

In-running (Autumn Twist (IRE))

“Set the pace early with a tendency to drift right - dropped to second after being overtaken - a slight mistake three out - regained command before the second last - driven along under pressure approaching the final fence and edged right there - went clear and held on strongly to the line”

AI-written, grounded in our data on this race. May be wrong. Verify before staking. Opinion, not advice.

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Fiveonefive

Fiveonefive arrives here narrowly behind the top-rated Feud on ratings but makes a compelling case on several other fronts, boasting a progressive profile, a more solid overall book of form, and what appears to be a meaningful fitness edge at this stage of the season. Feud must be respected as the top-rated runner in the field, while Black Bamboo and Autumn Twist are capable of running into a place on this trip at Killarney, but neither looks equipped to deny a horse travelling this well through its campaign. The selection is Fiveonefive.
