Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Anyasi

Anyasi is the pick here after getting off the mark readily at Yarmouth last time, and while that form came on softer ground, the faster surface today shouldn't trouble this colt by New Bay; he can defy his penalty and remains the one to beat. Two Commanders, successful by a narrow margin at Catterick last time, is open to further improvement, and Bucklow Hill, fitted with a tongue-tie after a below-par run on his latest start, still has more to offer, but Anyasi's decisive success at Yarmouth gives him the clearest claim in this novice.
