Balinaboola Steel heads the field on ratings, holding a five-pound edge over Duke Otto and six over Lincall in a competitive 17-runner heat over two and a half miles at Wexford, and that advantage is meaningful even if the overall confidence here is modest. Duke Otto and Lincall are the most obvious threats and should not be underestimated, while Sharetheknowledge also merits respect as the fourth-highest-rated runner in the field. That said, Balinaboola Steel's position at the top of the assessments gives enough reason to side with him, and he is the selection.
