Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Kind Touch
Kind Touch is the clear selection, sitting well clear at the top of our figures with the form to match. Confidence is high given the strength of that overall picture. Inca Heights, Cotai Lights and Art Lover are the main dangers, each with solid recent form of their own, but Kind Touch's class edge should prove decisive.
