Pundit pick: Billy Bathgate

Billy Bathgate is our selection at Redcar, edging it on our figures by the narrowest of margins — just a pound better than Stitching Wheel over today's 16f on good to firm. Lillistar and Sweet Cicely are further back on our figures and look to have more to find. Confidence in this one is low given how tight the form reads at the top, but Billy Bathgate gets the vote as the pick of a moderate Class 6 field.
