Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Le Beau Garcon

Le Beau Garcon is the selection in this competitive Class 5 sprint, taken up on a progressive profile rather than pure figures. Empress Olivia is only narrowly ahead on our figures, three pounds to the good on 76 to Le Beau Garcon's 73, with Speeding Bullet on 72 and Azuinthejungle on 69 the other main dangers. It's a low-confidence verdict in a big field of nine, but Le Beau Garcon's profile is the reason for going with it ahead of the highest-rated runner.
