Cîrstea has had a cracking start to 2026 and has continued transferring that form to clay. She looks a good price to cause a minor ranking upset here.

WITHOUT DELAY is worthy of consideration on her third run back from a break here. She improved last time out, but not enough to prevent the handicapper from shedding some weight. A couple more pounds have come off now, so she's two pounds below the mark she was when pipped by re-opposing Carlton and Co. (Now 8 lbs higher in weights but at a similar price.) That race was at Musselburgh in October. She's also 5 lbs below her last winning mark, which was over this trip in July. A handy apprentice is on board, and she's a danger if back on song.

Rock Armour's previous run here over 14 furlongs can be written off due to it being the first attempt at this distance. He had a competitive-looking run over this trip at the beginning of last month and is now a pound lighter in the handicap. This looks a slightly easier race than that one, so he's considered at this price.

We don't quite know just how far Osaka can reach since her comeback. She's come a long way and might not have finished yet. Swiatek hasn't been her usual invincible self in 2026, so Osaka is chanced at this price.

Colorado are fancied here. They had an off match in game three but have too much offensively for the Wild and should be too strong for them.

Cleveland will have some momentum after winning the last game in this series. They can extend it, and I think they have every chance of preventing the Pistons from winning the series here.

Thunder looking too strong for the Lakers here and seem to have the measure of them in this series. I fancy them to complete the sweep here.
