Select a runner to open its full research panel. Real race: Monmore 13:17, 15 Aug 2026.
We chose the 13:17 because our top-rated dog, Common Canter, won at a Betfair SP of 5.00. The 13:51 is the next race on the same card, same grade and trip: our top-rated dog, Aero Irruption, finished 6th. Over thousands of races the top pick wins about a third of the time.
One runner / A connected research journey
From a name on the card to a story worth following.
Try each step with Common Canter, the top-rated dog in the 13:17 at Monmore on 15 Aug 2026. It won at a Betfair SP of 5.00; the next race on the card did not go our way, and the demo shows both.
