TimeWise Ranked Horses:

• Boujee Gold (6yo, 9st 4lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 234.
  • Odds: 9-2.
  • Assessment: Boujee Gold is a dual winner over 8.6f at this course and has placed twice over that trip since winning at Brighton in April. However, he has been off for four months, and the shorter 7f trip raises a question about his suitability.
• Eden Storm (5yo, 9st 5lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 227.
  • Odds: 5-1.
  • Assessment: Both of Eden Storm’s wins were over this course and distance in 2023. He is currently on a 17-race losing streak but ran creditably last week at Southwell, finishing fifth by only 3 lengths. He could improve with the return of cheekpieces.

Betting Forecast Top Horses:

• Gilt Edge (9yo, 9st 4lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 208.
  • Odds: 7-2.
  • Assessment: Gilt Edge is a course and distance winner who performed very encouragingly when returning from an eight-month break to finish second at Chepstow 19 days ago. Despite being 1lb higher, he is considered a strong contender and is the “NAP” (best bet) selection in the spotlight verdict.
• Boujee Gold (6yo, 9st 4lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 234.
  • Odds: 9-2.
  • Assessment: (See above under TimeWise Ranked Horses).
• Additional Note: Guiteau (5yo, 9st 6lb) is also close in the betting at 6-1. He has won over this course and distance and showed promise on his return in July, though a subsequent run was modest. His market interest is worth noting.

TimeWise Ranked Horses:

• Likeness (2yo, 9st 2lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 285.
  • Odds: 5-1.
  • Assessment: Likeness has shown good form, placing third in two 6f novice races where she shaped as though the longer 7f trip would suit. She is considered a major player, and the spotlight verdict favors her.
• Uncertainty (2yo, 9st 2lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 257.
  • Odds: 6-1.
  • Assessment: Uncertainty has placed in 6f novices on good to firm ground and is making her AW debut. Her Goodwood effort is best overlooked, and she is expected to be competitive here.

Betting Forecast Top Horses:

• Sydney Rock (2yo, 9st 2lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 250.
  • Odds: 4-1.
  • Assessment: Sydney Rock finished second on her Newbury debut at 7f. While her pedigree might suggest this sharper track isn’t ideal, she is a half-sister to an AW winner and is highly rated.
• Likeness (2yo, 9st 2lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 285.
  • Odds: 5-1.
  • Assessment: (See above under TimeWise Ranked Horses).
• Additional Note: Several well-bred newcomers like Ghaadah (2yo, 9st 2lb) and Molo Del Palazzo (2yo, 9st 2lb) are also noted as interesting, and market confidence in them should be observed.

  • TimeWise Total: 297.

  • Assessment: Vronti has finished second in her last three starts, most recently at Goodwood. She could enjoy an uncontested lead and is expected to run well.

  • TimeWise Total: 252.
  • Odds: 9-4.
  • Assessment: Polygram has been in the frame in her last five outings, including a close second at this track over 7f. The step up in trip to 1m½f should suit her, and she is expected to be competitive.

  • TimeWise Total: 297.
  • Odds: 2-1.
  • Assessment: (See above under TimeWise Ranked Horses).

  • TimeWise Total: 255.
  • Odds: 5-1.

• Baikal (3yo, 9st 10lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 205.

  • TimeWise Total: 255.
  • Odds: 5-1.
  • Assessment: (See above under TimeWise Ranked Horses).
• Additional Note: Pearl Dubai (3yo, 9st 8lb) at 9-2 is also a contender, being a half-sister to a Group 3 winner and potentially suited by the return to AW and a longer trip on her handicap debut.

  • TimeWise Total: 236.
  • Odds: 11-4.

  • TimeWise Total: 210.
  • Odds: 5-1.
  • Assessment: Colors Of Freedom has three wins over this course and distance in the past year. While she needs to improve on her latest Chelmsford run, she is still capable of going well.

TimeWise Ranked Horses:

• Kodi Fire (3yo, 9st 8lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 295.
  • Odds: 7-4.
  • Assessment: Kodi Fire is on a hat-trick bid, having won his last three turf starts by a neck. He is 6lb higher and switches to the AW, where he is currently 0-5, but his current form makes him difficult to dismiss.
• Arbitration (3yo, 9st 7lb)
  • TimeWise Total: 259.
  • Odds: 7-1.
  • Assessment: Arbitration is winless in nine turf starts and doesn’t seem to be progressing. He needs to improve on his AW debut, though the trip may suit him.

  • Odds: 7-4.
  • Assessment: (See above under TimeWise Ranked Horses).

  • Odds: 4-1.
