Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Sun Goddess

Sun Goddess holds a clear advantage at the head of these ratings, sitting 10 lb above the next-best Where Love Lives in a wide-open York handicap, and her recent form entitles her to go well on this good ground over six furlongs. Where Love Lives is the most obvious threat and deserves respect, while Quillan and Vollering both carry identical ratings and cannot be discounted in a field of 22 where pace and positioning will play a significant part. The selection's superiority on form makes the case straightforward, and Sun Goddess is taken to justify that advantage with a confident display.
