13:53 Happy 80th Birthday William 'Bill' Carr Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)

Class 46f6 runnersSFT

Our read on Green Star: Nothing really stands out in this race. The best our numbers can offer is Green Star (the jockey has a good record at this track, a drop in class is in its favour and the yard is in good form), but we rate it only a modest chance. Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 12 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (1/1).

Our read on Under Arrest: Nothing really stands out in this race. The best our numbers can offer is Under Arrest (the jockey has a good record at this track, a drop in class is in its favour and the yard goes well at this track), but we rate it only a modest chance. It backs that up with form that reads well right now. Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 12 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (11/4).

Our read on Tyrrhenian Thunder: The model makes Tyrrhenian Thunder the strongest chance in the race: the jockey has a good record at this track, it has a solid career strike rate and it comes here fresh and in good time off its last run. It edges the field by 10 points on our numbers. The main caveat: it is stepping up in class. Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 16 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (11/2).

Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 19 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (13/2).

Our read on Sailthisshipalone: Nothing really stands out in this race. The best our numbers can offer is Sailthisshipalone (it is a strong fit for today's conditions, its recent form reads well and the yard goes well at this track), but we rate it only a modest chance. The main caveat: it is a touch below the better-rated horses on paper. Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 12 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (8/1).

Our read on Another Baar: The model makes Another Baar the strongest chance in the race: it looks well treated at the weights, a drop in class is in its favour and the jockey has a good record at this track. It is clear of the field, 46 points ahead of the next best. Recent form has been poor, so this leans on proven ability rather than current fitness. Even so, horses we rate this way win only about 21 in 100: this is a rating of chance, not a tip (2/1).
