Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Murcia
Murcia, our selection, sets the standard on our figures in this seven-runner field at Killarney over 20f, with a recent winning effort underlining the claim. Diamond Du Berlais, Birdie Or Bust and Grainne A Chroi are the chief dangers, though our figures leave Murcia clear at the top of that group. Confidence in the pick is low given the strength of that danger group, but Murcia remains the one to beat on the figures we hold.
