Pundit pick: Soldier's Tree

Soldier's Tree heads this 28-runner sprint on a rating that puts him narrowly ahead of the chasing pack — West Acre, Two Tribes and Completely Random all sit 10 points behind and represent the chief dangers in what is a fiercely competitive field. Soldier's Tree tops our ratings on 119 in this Class 2 six-furlong contest on good to firm ground, and that clear rating edge should stand him in good stead. West Acre and Two Tribes cannot be dismissed lightly, and with such a large field at a track where draw and pace can play a part, the one caveat is that clean passage is far from guaranteed. **Soldier's Tree** is our selection.
