Against our preview

Our best selection Shifra finished 5th, beaten 8.25 lengths ✗. Dream of Ithaca, one of the others we flagged, finished 3rd. Skimming Along, one of the others we flagged, finished 1st.

What stood out

  • The shortest-priced runner, Cosmic Girl (15/8), finished 4th.
  • Celtic Spirit finished 2nd at 10/1 – a big price for a placed horse.
  • Skimming Along won off a mark of 58 (3rd highest-rated of 11); the handicapper will usually raise that.
  • The winner's recent figures were 53.
  • Winning margin 3.25 lengths.

Note for next time

  • Shifra – our pick, 5th here. Check whether the trip or good suited before siding with it again.
  • Cosmic Girl – beaten as the shortest price. Don't assume it bounces straight back; look for a reason (ground, trip, draw) first.
