Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Park Hall

This is a tricky race to call, with four of the nine runners unraced and therefore unrated on our figures, adding plenty of unknowns to the form picture. Park Hall, trained by Dan Skelton and ridden by Harry Skelton, leads the way on 114, with Thepassingtyphoon (110), for Dominic Ffrench Davis, the closest on paper. Ocean Rose and Bath Taverness, level on 93, plus Savanna Storm on 86, round out the rated dangers but sit well behind that pair. Given the number of unexposed types in the field, confidence is low, but Park Hall is our selection on the figures available.
