Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: A Bear Affair

A Bear Affair heads this 10-runner Newbury Class 1 sprint over 6f on our figures and holds a clear advantage at the top, making it our selection. Social Symbol, Arapaho Gold and Agamemnon fill out the next three places on our figures and stand as the main dangers, keeping the race competitive behind the leader. Confidence is medium given how tightly that trio is grouped, but the merit gap from the top still points to A Bear Affair proving best of these.
