Exquisitely seems to have the edge based on recent form and adaptability. She has demonstrated consistent performance on varied ground conditions, which bodes well for her. On the other hand, Trusty Rusty has the potential to surprise, especially with the advantageous weight drop and Murphy on board, but her recent inconsistencies on turf make her a slightly riskier proposition. If forced to choose, Exquisitely appears to be the safer bet, while Trusty Rusty could serve as an interesting wager for those looking to take a gamble based on past glories.

Whiskey Pete (IRE) seems to have a slightly more established form, with consistent top finishes. His affinity for more challenging races, as suggested by his performance at Haydock, provides additional confidence in his chances. On the other hand, Kingdom Of Time carries significant promise due to his pedigree and investment, and while his maiden performance was moderate, there’s every chance he could step up this time around, especially with the added tongue-tie. Both horses seem poised for strong performances, but if current form is an indicator, Whiskey Pete might have a slight edge.

  • Navy Jack seems to have a good affinity for the Sandown track, given his past performance. If he can bounce back from his Newbury disappointment, he might have a solid chance. However, consistency is a concern.
  • The Line (IRE) showed promise in his debut and has a good pedigree backing him. If he can overcome his behavioral issues and the layoff doesn’t affect him negatively, he could be a significant player in this race. Yet, there’s a risk associated with his unpredictability at the stalls.

Both have the potential to finish in the top positions, but there are respective concerns that would need to weighed before making a decision.

  • Chindit (IRE) is undoubtedly one of the leading contenders based on form. His main challenge will be the soft ground, as his peak performances have been on good or firmer terrains. If he can adapt to the conditions, he could well be in with a significant shout.
  • Knight (IRE) is intriguing due to his consistency on softer ground. He’s shown improvement in recent races and could be peaking at the right time. If the cheekpieces have a positive effect, and he doesn’t carry his head awkwardly or hang, he has a strong chance. His adaptability to the soft ground further bolsters his chances in this race.
  • Both Chindit and Knight are strong contenders in this field, with Chindit having a slight edge due to his impressive form but needing to prove himself on the soft ground. Knight, on the other hand, seems more adapted to the softer conditions, which could give him an edge if the ground does play a significant role in the outcome.

Eastern Charm (IRE) appears to be a strong contender in this race. Her consistent form, versatility in terms of ground conditions, and proven grit make her a prominent figure in the race. The 3lb rise in weight seems reasonable given her performances, and she’s rightly dubbed as a “big player.”

Tango Tonight is also an intriguing runner. Her recent form at this track, combined with the minor weight rise, indicates she’s competitive. Her liking for the track and proven form on soft puts her in a good position. Her lighter race history might be a double-edged sword—while she might lack the experience of some other contenders, she could also be a horse that’s still improving.

1m2f

Born Ruler comes across as a strong contender, especially given his recent form. His dominant win over this course and distance very recently puts him in good stead, and Timeform clearly marks him as a top contender. The only caution is the quick turnaround from his last race; it might be a strain or an indication of his prime condition.

Star Ahoy is an intriguing prospect. While he hasn’t been as dominant as some might like in his previous races, his breeding and recent gelding suggest there might be untapped potential. His handicap debut after gelding will be a key indicator of what he’s capable of, and he’s noted as one not to underestimate.

In essence, Born Ruler seems to have a stronger chance based on recent form and is rightly the one to watch. Star Ahoy, on the other hand, can be seen as a wildcard with potential upside, making his handicap debut an exciting watch.

Kamanika (IRE) seems to be in good form this season, with her recent third-place finish at Newmarket emphasizing her consistency. Her adaptability over the 1m2f distance on various ground conditions further bolsters her chances. Her record suggest she’s very much in contention and is one of the horses to watch.

Al Hargah (IRE) also presents a solid case. Her impressive win at Newbury and the subsequent third at Leicester indicate she’s a horse in good nick. However, potential concerns about her form on soft ground need to be kept in mind, as it might influence her performance depending on the race day conditions.

Both Kamanika (IRE) and Al Hargah (IRE) emerge as strong contenders in the race, with their recent performances setting them apart from many of the other runners.
