Pundit pick: Canon Law

Canon Law is our selection in this competitive 12f heat at Killarney, preferred on a progressive profile rather than pure figures despite rating fractionally below the leading figure here. Sands Castle heads the ratings and, together with Guildhall Graduate and Point Cartwright, represents the biggest dangers in a maximum field of fifteen. The case for Canon Law rests on the shape of its recent form rather than outright figures, and with medium confidence in the pick, it's the selection to take into this wide-open renewal.
