Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Emperor Caradoc
Emperor Caradoc heads the market on our ratings and ran to a similar level when sixth last time off the same mark — first-time headgear today could help him translate form into a win. Fenlander arrives on the back of two wins, the most recent a comfortable one, but a 9lb rise means he must go up another level again. Return Of The Gods has not yet run on grass but showed good juvenile form and is unexposed over this trip; Master Of Entropy is worth forgiving his handicap debut at Chester where the conditions were against him. Emperor Caradoc is our selection.
