Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Akkadian Thunder

Akkadian Thunder is our selection in a tightly-packed Class 3 renewal, narrowly ahead of Yorkshire at the head of the ratings with Kodi Lion also within a pound or two. Yorkshire and Kodi Lion both rate close enough to pose a genuine threat, while Egoli's solid figure keeps him in the frame as the third danger. The margins are tight throughout the field, but Akkadian Thunder holds the clearest claim on figures. He's the pick at medium confidence.
