The ReadCOMPOSED FROM THE MEASURES BELOW
No confirmed early pace on the book, so this one may turn tactical. Winners here typically raced recently (96% within 45 days) and were prominent in the betting (61% from the first three favourites); the typical winner also sits around 2nd at halfway before quickening late, having spent about 49% of its energy before the final two furlongs. On the measured reads, MONDAMMEJ leads on 78, 2pts clear of SQUEALER (IRE) and COME ON OVER (IRE) (both 76) — dropping in class. The case against the top pick: habitually slow from the stalls. The shape danger is COYY (IRE) — the strongest late speed in this field, races handy on energy — profits if the early types overdo it. The market sees it differently, making SQUEALER (IRE) the 43% favourite — a horse our figures rate 2nd.

THE CASE AGAINST THE TOP PICK
MONDAMMEJ carries habitually slow from the stalls. COYY (IRE) is the one to beat it — an edge MONDAMMEJ lacks: a yard that scores in today’s conditions.
Balance, not doubt for its own sake — every pick has a case against; a reader should see ours.
Worth A Second Look
These horses rank lower on raw ability figures — but today's race fits a pattern their stable has repeatedly won in. In plain terms, why each deserves another look before you dismiss it.

Eve Johnson Houghton's runners in Class 4-5 company win 16.0% across all tracks and beat market expectation in both seasons. Eve Johnson Houghton's runners kept to the same class win 17.9% across all tracks and beat market expectation in both seasons.
