Educating Rita heads our ratings on 74, three pounds better than Wise Crack on 71, and that edge is enough to make her the one to beat in a competitive 14-runner Class 6 sprint on the Newcastle all-weather. Wise Crack is the chief danger, with Cairdeas (69) and Blazing Son (68) also close enough to take advantage if she is below her best. With the field so tightly packed behind her, a clean run from the stalls matters, but she has the strongest profile on our figures. Educating Rita is our selection.
