Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Roi de Coeur

Roi de Coeur is a clear-cut selection on figures, rated 82 and 9lb clear of Guest House, with an even bigger margin over Chapman's Peak and Celtic Chariot, both on 69. That kind of edge stands out in this Class 5 event at Yarmouth, and confidence in the selection is high. Guest House is the most obvious danger given the rating gap to the rest, while Chapman's Peak and Celtic Chariot, tied on 69, complete the list of leading rivals.
