Action heads our ratings on 113, a clear eight pounds better than Shaihaan on 105, and that gap is the main reason he gets the vote in a Class 1 contest over 11 furlongs on soft ground. Shaihaan is the chief danger as the next best on figures, while Caught U Sleeping (101) and Manton Bay (100) sit close enough behind to make life awkward if Action fails to reproduce his best. The rest look to have plenty to find on our figures, though confidence is only low given the testing conditions and the competitive group just behind. Even so, the strongest overall case is for Action.
