Hamilton 2:54 Result

Highest-rated runner (OR66) carries top weight for good reason - form figures 347349 show consistent placing with a recent win in there, and he's fresher (23 days) than several rivals who are going up in class of effort after tougher recent runs. Draw 3 is fine for a 6f nursery at Hamilton. Jason Hart is a strong booking and trainer Katie Scott clearly has him fit and progressing. The main market rivals (Fern Clyde, Dadawada) have holes - Fern Clyde's 134645 is inconsistent and she's had a busy campaign, while Dadawada dropped right away last time (5460, finishing last). Lady Titania, Bonjour Belle, Stay On Tab and North Coates are all lower-rated and have had modest recent efforts without standing out. Or Another looks the most reliable and consistent horse in the field with the profile of one who is racing to his current mark rather than exposed beyond it. He should go well again fresh off a short break, and the balance of form/weight/rating all point his way as best bet in a competitive but ultimately shallow nursery.
