🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be contested in a steady tempo with early leaders expected from the midfield, though Bells Grove’s consistent headway and strong third in a Cheltenham bumper under pressure suggest he could take the early run and hold on through the closing stages. Bells Grove stands out as the most compelling performer, having placed in three consecutive bumper starts including a narrow third at Cheltenham where he was just a neck off a Skelton horse now rated 137, and showing a solid third in a Listowel maiden with steady headway and resilience under pressure despite a recent unplaced effort. The main danger comes from Whoyougonnacall, who showed promise in a Clonmel debut despite a fall, and the each-way appeal of Hows Ellie, who despite a poor start at Roscommon, has a solid RPR of 106 and a track record of staying in touch with leaders. Turlough Abu, though with limited form, presents a value at the forecast price due to his recent draw and consistent behind-the-pack position, while Poetic Parable and Emmamia remain notable for their low RPRs and lack of recent progress.
