The Verdict
FormCast selectionLogi BearConfidence 4/5Didn't win
Logi Bear has the highest OR (75) in the field and his recent form figures 662921 show sharp progression, culminating in a win last time out just 16 days ago. He's a lightly-raced 3yo still on an upward curve, now fitted with cheekpieces (p) which appears to have sharpened him up given the win. David Probert takes over, an experienced hand for a yard that clearly has confidence given the quick reappearance. Draw 4 is workable at Epsom over 6f, not ideal but not a major handicap in a small 7-runner field. Rivals are less convincing: Em Four has been fading in the weeks since his early-season form figures (357851) suggest more of a mid-pack finisher now; Twirler and Cayman Tai are lower-rated and inconsistent; Proof's form figure -19806 is patchy with a long layoff; Perfect Location and Harry's Halo both have questions over fitness/trip having been off for 49 and 84 days respectively. Logi Bear looks the most in-form, correctly weighted (top rated) and represents a trainer/jockey combo with plenty of application at this level. He looks the strongest each-way and win claim in a moderate contest.
