Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Ataturk, second on our figures behind Captain Cairney, is preferred as the selection on a progressive profile and a clock that backs up that improvement. He runs in a competitive Class 6 event over 12 furlongs at Chepstow where the form on offer is close, with Captain Cairney, Dash Of Class and Aravalli all boasting solid claims of their own. Confidence in the verdict is low given how tightly matched the principals are, but Ataturk's trajectory makes him our selection.
