We saidWon at 100/30
INTERVENTION 10/3
INTERVENTION at 10/3, Michael Appleby and Harry Davies, is the standout, and this is exactly the sort of race to find one. He races off a mark 21lb below the 82 it won from back in December 2025, is a 6 times-winner over this course and comes from a yard in good heart at 21%.
The risk is METHGAL, the only confirmed front-runner here — front-runners at this track win 2.0 times their share of these races, and an uncontested lead could be decisive.
The dangers are CAYMAN TAI at 7/2 (went close off this mark) and WAY TO DUBAI at 10/1 (well handicapped).
