The Verdict
FormCast selectionBeormaConfidence 5/5Didn't win
Beorma's form line of six straight wins (111111) is outstanding and shows a mare in relentless progress, trained by a top yard (Dan Skelton) with Harry Skelton up for max stable confidence. Despite carrying a slightly lower OR (114) than the top two, her recent unbeaten sequence trumps the rest of this small four-runner field, none of whom show anything like that consistency - Duke Of Luckley and Seeyouinmydreams both have a fallers/mixed profile (PP-13V, 2-135V), while In This World is out of form (4P5-5F) and has had a long 87-day layoff. A winning machine stepping up in class slightly but clearly progressive, and with a big weight concession from only 2 rivals of real quality in a small field, she looks the standout. The 67-day break is a minor concern but Skelton yards are adept at freshening horses for a black-type-style spot. This looks a match-fit banker in a weak-ish 4-runner heat.
