All eyes at Pontefract for the 15:57 are firmly fixed on one horse, and that’s the hugely impressive Atomic Force. Edward Bethell’s gelding, partnered by Oisin James Orr, arrives here looking an absolute certainty at odds of 1/10, and it’s easy to see why.

A deep dive into his profile reveals a horse in scintillating form, highlighted by the crucial trend that he ‘won last time out’. He’s now won his last two starts with authority, a progressive profile that demands respect. His overall consistency is undeniable, with another key trend showing he has ‘placed in 3 of his last 5 runs’. This reliability is precisely what we seek when delivering tips with such conviction.

Operating with an OR of 94, he’s clearly a class act in this field, and his recent performances suggest he’s still got more to give. It’s tough to envision anything in this race getting close to him given his current trajectory and the commanding nature of his victories. Atomic Force looks set to deliver.

For those seeking an alternative angle, Arklow Lad presents a solid each-way option, capable of hitting the frame at a longer price if everything falls his way.
