Standouts:

Race 3, N4 Arcadia Star – Consistent galloper who rarely runs a bad race and wasn’t beaten far when up in trip latest. Looks better suited back to 1700m here and in the small field can settle on-speed. Has plenty of upside and in suitable race will prove hard to run down late. Has the highest SFR (Statfreaks Rating) in this race and the 3rd highest SFR at the meeting. William Pike is going at a 19%-win strike rate when riding in middle distance races and an impressive 28%-win strike rate when riding horses that settle on-pace. This is William Pikes best ride at the meeting as per our SFR and he also teams with the M.Grantham yard, together they are going at an impressive 27%-win strike rate Trainer/Jockey combo.

Race 6, N5 Triple Jay – Broke maiden status first up last time out and looks well placed to go on with it here. Will enjoy a soft run on-speed and with added fitness may prove too strong for them late. Has the highest SFR in this race and the 2nd highest SFR at the meeting. William Pike has a 17%-win strike rate when riding in sprint races and an impressive 36%-win strike rate when riding favourites.
