Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Dereham

Dereham is the natural pick in a race that has been run in his honour, having taken it three times previously, and he again has conditions firmly in his favour over the extended trip on a sound surface. He usually delivers from off the pace and posted an encouraging reappearance at Yarmouth. Betelgeuse is consistent and fits with cheekpieces after a placed effort at Yarmouth last week; Prince Quattro is also respected back on turf off a fair mark. Dereham is our selection.
