My early assessments

Victory Vein 5.00
Royal Purler 8.00
Rare Insight 9.00
Lashed 15.00
Chuckle 16.00
Coupe 20.00

Not really to keen to have a bet here as my top 6 runners are all drawn in 10 or wider. VV way under the odds. Might win, but not with my money on it. Royal Purler and Rare Insight are about level with what is currently available.

One option might be to have a trifecta leaving VV out of the place and maybe including La Bella Dame, Fuji Dancer or Macedon Lady. 2x5x8 for 56 units? I don't normally bet tris so probably won't bother here.
Another option would be to leave VV out of doubles/trebles and include 4/5 next best. Laying favs usually gives value divis on these bet types as "everyone" includes them or even stands them out just because they're a short price.

This all of course means you would be betting against the horse you believe to have the best chance of winning, which some people don't like to do.

Think I'll have another look in the morning, but at this stage I'll just be watching.
