The ReadCOMPOSED FROM THE MEASURES BELOW
Nothing separates the early types on measured speed — expect a fight for the front. Winners here typically raced recently (94% within 45 days) and were prominent in the betting (65% from the first three favourites); the typical winner also sits around 4th at halfway before quickening late, having spent about 49% of its energy before the final two furlongs. On the measured reads, CRISTO leads on 89, 3pts clear of WINSTON'S WARRIOR (IRE) — a yard that scores in today’s conditions. Little to argue against on the measured reads — the only question is the price. The shape danger is BUBBLES WONKY (IRE) — the quickest of today's early types, at the tempo that wins here — and finds plenty late, sharp from the stalls. The market agrees — it makes CRISTO the 36% favourite.

Won by prominent racers 32% · midfield runners 30% (44 past C&D winners · won up with the pace). Stamina-sapping uphill finish — the defining feature. Winners’ energy signature: 49.46% spent early (band 48.65–50.19%, 58 measured winners, and the typical winner sits ~4 at halfway, 0.57s off the lead). graded 44% · n=331 Only 2 confirmed early types — the likely leader can dictate, a real edge at a track this front/prominent-biased.
