Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: See The Fire
See The Fire holds a clear edge over the field on these ratings, sitting five pounds ahead of Friendly Soul and well clear of the remaining trio, which at least gives a solid foundation for selection over this ten-furlong trip at Goodwood. Friendly Soul represents the most obvious threat, while Moments Of Joy and Botagoz cannot be entirely dismissed if the principals disappoint. The form around See The Fire does leave room for doubt, so this is taken on a narrow basis. **See The Fire** is our selection.
