Pundit pick: Arch Enemy

Arch Enemy is our selection, preferred here for her progressive profile even though she isn't the highest-rated on our figures. The chief dangers are Autocrat, who tops our ratings on the strength of his recent form, and Trishuli River and Rising Sky, both with useful recent form of their own. This looks a competitive heat at Navan over today's 10 furlongs, but Arch Enemy's overall attributes edge it for us, albeit with only medium confidence.
