Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Miss Kassiopi
Miss Kassiopi caught the eye with a close second on her stable debut, and remains unexposed as a thorough stayer for Dan Skelton, whose yard is in fine form. Hurst Hill has course form and could be finding her best stride, while Blue Siam was going well before her latest setback here; both are dangers worth heeding. Miss Kassiopi gets the vote.
