In-running (Genchev (GB))

“sharing the early pace and soon in front after 1f - driven over 2f out and given a hard race for the lead - squeezed out of that position fractionally over 1f out - fought back in front in the final 150 yards - driven out to the line to just prevail”

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Yousaynothingatall

Yousaynothingatall is our selection over today's ten-furlong trip, preferred on a progressive profile despite sitting a few pounds behind Genchev on our figures. She has been a picture of consistency, with four places from her last five starts including a win two starts back, and her yard is among the in-form stables of the moment. Genchev, Vanir and Noble Honour are the chief dangers, with Genchev the pick of them at the top of our figures, but this looks a competitive renewal and Yousaynothingatall's improving profile gets the vote.
