The ReadCOMPOSED FROM THE MEASURES BELOW
TOKEN LOVE (FR) is the only confirmed early type — if it breaks level it should get the front to itself. Winners at this course and distance typically spend 48.05% of their energy before the final 2f and sit around 3 at halfway, 0.46s off the lead. The measured order tops GOLDIE TRICKETT (IRE) on 68, 4.7pts clear of REVICH (IRE). GOLDIE TRICKETT (IRE): a genuine turn of foot — 4th-best late speed here, races handy on energy — profits if the early types overdo it. The shape danger is BROUHAHA (IRE) — the strongest late speed in this field, races handy on energy — profits if the early types overdo it.

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.

Roger Fell's runners on turf win 12.6% across all tracks and beat market expectation in both seasons.

Where the pace is drawn · 6 runners · stalls 1–6
123456
Stall number over each runner’s usual early position (amber = front/prominent, blue = mid/held-up, grey = no read; a dashed stall is vacant). Hover a stall for the runner. The early pace is drawn HIGH (early types average stall 5.0 of 6, field average 3.5).
If the ground changes
Should it turn softer: GOLDIE TRICKETT (IRE) is 0/1 on softer ground · REVICH (IRE) is 1/9 on softer ground · TOKEN LOVE (FR) is 0/2 on softer ground. Records only — going aptitude is context, never a downgrade (the market prices it).

The early fight · measured
Who actually gets the front: each confirmed early type’s speed over the opening 2f of its own recent races, compared with the horses it faced that day — plus how sharply it leaves the stalls.
