The ReadCOMPOSED FROM THE MEASURES BELOW
Measured on their own past openings, ELLIE'S DE VEGA should reach the front first — roughly 1.3 lengths faster to the 2f marker than the next early type. Winners here typically raced recently (94% within 45 days) and were prominent in the betting (41% from the first three favourites); the typical winner also sits around 3rd at halfway before quickening late, having spent about 50% of its energy before the final two furlongs. On the measured reads, BLACK CAB (FR) leads on 61, 3pts clear of AURADUE — in form. The case against the top pick: rated well above the mark it last won from. The shape danger is SUGAR BON BON (IRE) — the strongest late speed in this field, saving plenty for the finish — profits if the early types overdo it. The market sees it differently, making ELLIE'S DE VEGA the 28% favourite — a horse our figures rate 4th.

What this course & distance favours
Won by front-runners 38% · prominent racers 30% (118 past C&D winners · won up with the pace). Stiff, uphill finish — a true stamina test. Draw: Straight course (5f-1m, the only AW straight mile in Britain): slight LOW edge at 5f-6f, shifting to a HIGH-draw (stands-side) advantage towards 7f-1m — on the straight mile stalls 1-2 run well below par while higher/stands-side draws outperform. Winners’ energy signature: 49.6% spent early (band 48.99–50.07%, 190 measured winners, and the typical winner sits ~3 at halfway, 0.17s off the lead). graded 42% · n=389 Today 4 confirmed early types will contest the lead — at a track that rewards prominent racing a hot pace can compromise the pure front-runners, handing it to a prominent horse that sustains or a well-drawn closer.
