Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris carries the strongest hurdles profile in the field and the step up to today's longer trip should bring out an improved effort after he found things too quick over shorter on his return to fences. Eclipse Chaser, who ran well on his chase debut at this course, makes the main danger, with Duke Silver and Fillyoureye also to note. Pinot Gris is our selection.
