The Overlay Read

Saturday 26 September 2026

There are 54 races across 7 British and Irish meetings today, and our model has scored every runner from 0 to 100. This is a quick read of where the numbers catch the eye, and where they sit differently to the price. It is analysis, not tips: a rating is a read on the race, for you to weigh.

The standout

Our highest-rated runner is First Law, a 78 on our scale for the 13:55 at Newmarket. At 3/1 the price is fair rather than generous, but this is the profile the model likes best anywhere on the card today. Behind it on the ratings come Inner City Blues (75), Sure Touch (71) and Kodiak Breeze (70).

Where the value lies

Value, for us, is not the shortest price but the widest gap between our rating and the market's. Today the model is keenest on a handful of bigger-priced runners the crowd has largely passed over.

A rating is a read on the race, not a promise. We publish every call, win or lose.

Yesterday, honestly

The model advised no qualifying STRONG picks yesterday, or the results are still settling. Our honest, day-by-day scorecard, win or lose, always lives on the record page.
