Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Forever Penywern
Forever Penywern makes the most appeal, with two wins from his last five Flat starts and a recent effort off a mark 20lb higher than today’s among his credentials. He handles this trip on AW and arrives potentially ahead of his mark. Northwest Passage, who ran close to his best at York, and consistent Club Class, now adding cheekpieces for the first time, are the key dangers. Forever Penywern is our selection.
