Narrative: Competitive 3yo handicap headed on raw figures by top-rated Haayimm, who beat a disappointing favourite at Pontefract last time and remains unexposed for an in-form Bethell yard. The race shape pivots on whether quickly-back Blues And Royals can defy a 5lb rise from a low draw, and whether first-time cheekpieces unlock further improvement for Pandemonium after his Horris Hill flop. Evening Blues boasts the highest RPR but returns from a six-month break for a new yard with poor RTF. The lightly-weighted Victory Ace and wind-op Magical Merlot provide bottom-weight angles. Recommended: Haayimm Top OFR off just three starts with the comment flagging him as 'very much unexposed', allied to a winning last run, strong jockey/trainer Elo combo and an in-form yard. The clearest blend of class and upside in the field. Alternative: Blues And Royals Progressive sort with the lowest weight among the leading group, a low draw, a stable yard humming on RTF and a quick turnaround. The spotlight explicitly suggests he can defy the 5lb rise. ============================================================================== Generated 2026-06-16 04:25 UTC · HorseRacingValue.com · race rac_11960832
