Against our preview

Our best selection Captain Cool finished 3rd, beaten 7 lengths ✗. Singapore Trip, one of the others we flagged, finished 4th. In The Air, one of the others we flagged, finished 1st.

What stood out

  • The shortest-priced runner, Singapore Trip (7/4), finished 4th.
  • In The Air won off a mark of 123 (2nd highest-rated of 4); the handicapper will usually raise that.
  • The winner's recent figures were 412, so it came in with winning form.
  • A tight finish – little separated the first two.

Note for next time

  • Sir Tivo – 2nd, beaten only 0.5 lengths. Worth a look next time under similar conditions (1m7f, good to firm).
  • Captain Cool – our pick, 3rd here. Check whether the trip or good to firm suited before siding with it again.
