Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Yorkshire Queen

Yorkshire Queen ran close to her best at Musselburgh last time when finishing only a length and a half behind the leaders off a mark just 1lb lower — she is lightly exposed at 7f and capable of further progress. Velvet Rhythm is the likeliest danger having landed two wins over this course and distance in strong form before a below-par effort last time that can be forgiven with a more patient ride, while Homestrait has been in good form recently including over course and distance. Yorkshire Queen is our selection.
