Another Towcester sprint where the clock, not the ratings, tends to call it right — speed rank one wins nearly one in four here against the top-rated dog's one in five. Trap three has been the standout box in this grade at 24%, with traps five and six the weakest at around 13% apiece. Popmaster shares the fastest recorded time in this field and, when the model's own top pick also owns a share of the best speed figures, that combination is the strongest signal at this trip. Foulkscourtstorm matches him on the clock from the sixth box but that draw has been unproductive in this grade. Salthill Albie, drawn in the favoured third trap, is an interesting alternative if the pace up front goes too fast, but the model itself doesn't rate him among the leading contenders despite a strong raw performance figure.
Shares the fastest recorded speed rating in this field and was placed last time out at this exact course, distance and grade. When the model's top selection also carries a share of the leading speed figures, that combination has been the most reliable read at this Towcester sprint trip. His trainer's record in these conditions is modest rather than standout, which is the one mark against him, but on pace and recent placed form he's the one to beat.
Finished fifth last time out but that undersells him — he shares the fastest recorded time of anyone in this field and his trainer has a fair record in these conditions. The concern is the draw: trap six has been almost as unproductive as trap five in this grade, so he needs to overcome that with pure gate speed. On the clock alone he's right there with the pick.
Finished fourth last time out but actually carries the highest raw performance figure of anyone in this field, and he's drawn in trap three, which has been the outstanding box in this grade at 24%. Curiously the model's own ranking doesn't back him as strongly as the raw number would suggest, which makes him hard to fully trust, but the trap alone gives him a squeak if the pace collapses up front.
Steps down from a longer trip where she was placed last time out, and her stamina profile shows a fast starter who loses ground late — a pattern that matters less over this shorter sprint. Mid-pack on the clock and trap one is a fair without being outstanding draw in this grade. Others have the stronger claims.
Drops back in trip having last raced at 460 metres, and shares the fastest speed rating in this field despite that. She's a confirmed closer who finishes off her races strongly, which is a harder trick to pull off over a sharp 270 metres than at longer trips. Trap four is a reasonable draw in this grade. Worth including in the shake-up.
Finished fourth last time out and is another confirmed closer, but he's the slowest recorded dog in this field and is drawn in trap five, which has been one of the two weakest boxes in this D2 grade. The combination of a closing style, a sharp trip and a poor draw stacks up against him.
Key insight: The fastest dog in the field wins almost one in four at this trip, clearly ahead of the top-rated dog's one in five — speed is the primary factor to weigh here
Trap three strongest at 24%, traps five and six weakest at around 13%
