Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Centurion's Sister
Centurion's Sister is our selection for this Class 5 test over 16 furlongs at Perth, preferred to the head of our figures on a fitness edge and a progressive profile despite being without a win in her recent form. She arrives in good order following a 16-day break and holds solid form over today's trip and ground. Follow Charlie sits highest on our figures and, alongside Lucky In Taipan and Jolyjump, forms the chief opposition in a field of eight — enough to make this a low-confidence vote for our selection.
