Pundit pick: The Lost Sock

The Lost Sock is our selection and sits clear at the top of our figures in this tight three-runner Class 5 over 6 furlongs. He has been frequently competitive without a win this campaign, but a quick 9-day turnaround and a clear edge on our figures make him hard to oppose. Zen Diva and Charlie Boyo, both fresh from recent placed or winning form of their own, are the main dangers, though confidence in the selection here is only medium.
