Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Catchim
Catchim is our selection in this Class 5 event over today's 17f on good ground, preferred to the top of our figures on a fitness edge and a progressive profile. Dream Jet rates highest on paper and, along with Most Wanted and Prospect House, poses the biggest threat to that selection. We're siding with Catchim with medium confidence, the pick on profile even without the very top rating in the field.
