Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Washington Heights

Washington Heights isn't the highest-rated on our figures, but the reason he's preferred is a progressive profile — recent form, fitness and conditions all pointing the right way. Starlust holds an edge on pure figures and cannot be ignored, while Jm Jungle and American Affair also warrant respect as leading dangers. On balance, and with only medium confidence, Washington Heights is our selection.
