Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Super Tuscan
Super Tuscan is our selection at York, sitting clear on our figures with a rating of 90 in this Class 4 six-furlong test on good to firm. He looks the one they all have to catch, with Furturra and Big Cigar the most dangerous of the chasing pack. Social Spirit also commands respect and, on his best, is capable of running into the frame. Confidence in Super Tuscan is high on the balance of the form.
