Top-half AI rating in the EW price sweet spot. Each-way splits stake: half on the win, half on the place portion.
His Finest Hour heads this seven-runner Ripon Class 5 over ten furlongs on soft ground narrowly ahead of the field on ratings, with Draupnir four pounds back and Yermanthere and Poet's Dawn close behind in what amounts to a fairly open contest. The soft conditions will be a leveller, and Draupnir and Yermanthere in particular look capable of closing the gap if the ground blunts anything less than a peak performance. That said, His Finest Hour's edge at the top of these ratings gives him a slim but genuine claim to favouritism on form, and on a going day he should have enough to see off this modest field. His Finest Hour is our selection.
