  • Pace Angles & Draw Angles:Expected pace is even to steady, with limited natural front-runners. Scarriff and possibly Infantry Officer may be ridden forward, but no confirmed trailblazer, which could disadvantage hold-up types needing a strong pace. Ripon can favour prominent racers when pace is modest. The draw is broadly neutral over this trip, but double-figure…

The straight Doncaster 5f has no major draw bias on good to firm, but low-to-middle draws have historically been marginally advantageous in big fields on such ground. Strongest…
