Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party

Pundit pick: Betelgeuse

Betelgeuse tops this Class 6 field on our figures, rated 70 and still without a win despite three runner-up efforts in his last five starts. Lenny's Spirit matches him on rating and looks the biggest danger, with Trojan Truth and Spec Of Light both capable of going close having shown ability well above their official marks. The placed form all round makes this competitive, but the selection's proven form over today's 12f trip edges it. Selection: Betelgeuse.
