Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Trinculo
Trinculo takes up handicap company off a mark that looks lenient if he can be more relaxed; he got worked up and raced too freely on his latest start but there is enough ability there to suggest he rates well above that opening figure. Concert has solid credentials on the all-weather and Perfect Location is a strong player having returned to form last time, while Night Shining brings interesting potential on a workable opening mark. Trinculo is the call.
