Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Cogitate sits just a pound behind Shaman Champion on our figures, with the clock backing the form and a progressive profile pointing to more to come. Shaman Champion, a pound to the good, and Eminency, two pounds behind Cogitate, look the most obvious dangers, with White Crown Star, nine pounds back, also in the shortlist. Confidence is medium, but Cogitate's overall profile is enough to bridge that gap at the top of this Class 4, making it our selection.
