Form: 668534
Jockey: Taylor Fisher
Trainer: Joe Tickle
Probability (Normalized): 20%
Implied Probability: 23% (odds 11/4)
Value: Below Fair
Analysis:
In a small field on firmish ground, the pace looks moderate—Seconds Count may go forward, with I Can Imagine expected to settle handily and stay on well. I Can Imagine brings the most consistent form at this level (cheekpieces boost) and shows ideal sectional effectiveness for the expected ground. Haggas’s Seconds Count has the best trainer stats but will need to bounce back from a blip. Gladiadora faces a tough ask giving weight and has limited upside but could pick up the pieces if the pace collapses late.
Scenario Analysis:
If the going firms further, it could dull finishing kicks, favouring those racing prominently—Seconds Count. Should the pace heat up, I Can Imagine’s efficiency could prevail, while Gladiadora stays on for a place.
Overround Insight:
This race operates at 103% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 3%
This is considered low, suggesting a tight, favourite-driven market with efficient odds across the board.

Third: #1 Temple Bruer
Form: 874831
Jockey: Taylor Fisher
Trainer: Mike Murphy
Probability (Normalized): 20%
Implied Probability: 22% (7/2)
Value: Below Fair
Analysis:
Moe’s Legacy—chasing a hat-trick and proven on firm—rates the strongest profile, with robust sectionals and a speedy pace setup. Temple Bruer and South Shore (both consistent) should relish the conditions, with the latter perhaps benefiting if early leaders duel too long. The field lacks depth and market signals confirm the main chances; all other contenders lack the speed figures needed for this class and ground.
Scenario Analysis:
If the early fractions slacken, Temple Bruer could dictate and defy, but if the ground dries even further, early pace holds up and Moe’s Legacy pulls clear if fit-to-run. Should it rain unexpectedly, South Shore’s stamina edge may have its say.
Overround Insight:
This race operates at 105% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 5%
Average market, with no huge ricks but a clear market focus on the front two suggesting little each-way value elsewhere.

Third: #3 Wojtek
Form: 26
Jockey: Saffie Osborne
Trainer: Clive Cox
Probability (Normalized): 17%
Implied Probability: 12% (odds 9/2)
Value: Above Fair
Analysis:
Debut effort and efficiency mark out Spacewoman as having the biggest upside; strong closing splits and proven on quick ground. Simplify is well supported in the market and looks the main danger if stepping up again. Wojtek’s third spot is driven by a solid stable record and an eye-catching closing sectional on debut. Market confidence confirms the shortlist with others showing little.
Scenario Analysis:
If the field breaks sharply, Spacewoman’s sectionals are still likely to punch through, but Balding and Cox’s runners could surprise if rain softens the ground. Should there be a draw bias to higher numbers, Simplify edges it.
Overround Insight:
This race operates at 107% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 7%
Slightly inflated prices in the mid-to-high odds range suggest a bit of each-way value on the third and fourth market lines.

Third: #9 Rogue Endeavour
Form: 844360
Jockey: Luke Morris
Trainer: Grace Harris
Probability (Normalized): 16%
Implied Probability: 15% (odds 11/2)
Value: Fair
Analysis:
The three top choices rate well on pace, form, and overall sectionals against a shallow field. Hardlass’s position as market leader is supported by recent unlucky runs; Neptune Legend’s experience is significant, especially if the pace is hot early. Rogue Endeavour has a solid chase profile and can capitalise if the front two underperform.
Scenario Analysis:
Should the pace collapse—unlikely on current going—Rogue Endeavour could pick up pieces. If there’s a late withdrawal, especially of Hardlass, the market might tip in Neptune’s favour.
Overround Insight:
This race operates at 104% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 4%
This is “average” for a low-grade sprint, with the top two relatively short in the book and little fat in the prices for outsiders.

Form: 943612
Jockey: Saffie Osborne
Trainer: Mark Loughnane
Probability (Normalized): 17%
Implied Probability: 20% (odds 4/1)
Value: Below Fair
Analysis:
Sir Mark Prescott’s Launceston brings at least one stone in hand—likely improver at the trip and with a high-ceiling profile. Virtual Hug is ultra-consistent and worthy of respect but lacks Launceston’s ceiling. Black Smoke aims for reward if the pace is contested up front. Anything else represents a “hold and hope” situation for the places.
Scenario Analysis:
Any late softening of ground could bring stamina into play for Black Smoke. If Launceston is tardy early, Virtual Hug’s experience could sneak him the verdict.

This race operates at 105% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 5%

Form: -45435
Jockey: Finley Marsh
Trainer: Adrian Wintle
Probability (Normalized): 18%
Implied Probability: 15% (odds 11/2)
Value: Above Fair
Analysis:
Orchestral Wave is upwardly mobile and handled similar going with comfort last time. Galactic Glow should push for pace but may be vulnerable if the tempo is strong. Blue Hero appeals as a big value option, likely to run above his odds if the race is run to suit closers.
Scenario Analysis:
A slower-than-expected early gallop will help the speedier, classier types, tipping it further to Orchestral Wave. Draw and pace bias could see Blue Hero sneak into first if leaders falter early.
Overround Insight:
This race operates at 105% implied probability → Bookmaker margin: 5%
Market is reasonably tight with just enough inflation at the front of the market to warrant interest in value runners further down the betting.
NAP of the Meeting – Bath
Race Time: 8:05
Horse Name: #8 Launceston
Confidence Factors: Dominant yard record, clear improvement off his seasonal return, trip and ground ideal, lightly-raced profile.
Race Conditions: Fast ground and a sound pace highlight his stamina edge, minimal opposition for class.
Summary: This is my Nap of the Meeting — the “run-that-wins” scenario aligns strongest with the model. Back with confidence.
Probability Normalized & Implied Probability Explained
Implied Probability is how likely a horse is to win according to bookmaker odds. Normalized Probability adjusts all runner’s probabilities to a “fair book” after removing the bookmaker’s margin (overround), so all add to 100%. Normalized Probabilities are used to identify where market prices do not reflect true chances; these are your betting “edges.”
Ideally you want the Probability (Normalized) to be Higher than the Implied Probability
