El Fontenaro sits narrowly behind the three joint top-rated runners on our figures, but a progressive profile suggests there is more to come from this one over six furlongs on soft ground at Cork, making the ratings gap less significant than it first appears. Jordan Breeze, Carrigans Grove, and Surpass And Shine all share the highest rating in a wide-open twenty-runner field and will pose the principal threats, while Verified and Simmering Seas cannot be entirely dismissed either. This is a deeply competitive heat and confidence is limited, but the upward trajectory of El Fontenaro tips the balance in his favour, and he is the selection.
