Narrative: Small Listed contest dominated on the figures by the unbeaten Saxon Street, who brings a strong RPR of 113 from a top Gosden yard humming at 23% over 14 days. The chief threats are Godolphin's Del Maro, who won last time with a TS of 105, and Golden Story (RPR 112, TS 110) for K R Burke. Command The Stars and Oratorical look outclassed on ratings and recent form figures. Race shape suggests a steady tempo with stamina assets relevant on Good To Soft over 1m3f. Recommended: Saxon Street Top RPR (113) in the field, unbeaten in two, Gosden yard at 23% over 14 days and trainer Elo 1818. Has the highest ceiling and the cleanest profile. Alternative: Del Maro Won last time, highest TS (105), Appleby/Marquand combo and trainer at 31% over 14 days. Most exposed but most reliable threat. ============================================================================== Generated 2026-05-30 18:11 UTC · HorseRacingValue.com · race rac_11945518
