Pundit corner

Pundit pick: The Thames Boatman

The Thames Boatman won at Goodwood three starts ago and was in decent form for a spell before running too freely to do himself justice on his latest outing; back on the same mark and equipped with cheekpieces for the first time, he has more than enough ability to take charge here. Silver Wraith ran with credit at Bath before an off-day in stronger company last time and is 1lb below her last winning mark, while King Of Stars returns from a lengthy absence with first-time cheekpieces and is a front-runner who could prove influential on pace. Connie's Rose bounced back to runner-up at Chepstow last time and, running just 1lb above her last winning level, can also play a part. The Thames Boatman is our selection.
