Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Collecting Coin
Collecting Coin heads our figures on a rating of 89, a clear 8 lb better than nearest pursuer Woodstock, and gets the nod as our selection in this Chester Class 4. Woodstock, Quiet Resolve and Cool Molly are the principal dangers, all within a workable margin of the leader on our figures. Collecting Coin's advantage looks solid rather than overwhelming, making this a medium-confidence selection rather than a certainty.
