Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Del Maro

Del Maro is the pick of this Class 1 stayers' event at Newmarket (July) over 13f, rated 109 and clear at the head of the market on figures, making him our selection. Nil Bua Gan Dua is the closest danger on 104 and looks capable of running him closest, with Alderman on 103 and Galiyan on 101 both holding solid claims of their own. Point of Law brings up the rear on the same rating as Galiyan and looks up against it from here. Overall the form favours Del Maro to confirm his position at the head of this field.
