Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Who's Lope

Who's Lope tops our ratings on his handicap debut, having progressed through each of his three starts to land a novice last time by over four lengths; the son of Lope De Vega should be well suited to this 14f trip and his opening mark looks lenient. Gibside ran his strongest race of the season recently and is a genuine threat off a fair mark, while My Ballyquinn — proven in handicap company and a hold-up performer who travels well — could be well suited to the added distance. Secret Force won last time but carries a 5lb penalty here. Who's Lope is our selection.
