Pundit pick: Wolf's Gallop

Amber Ocean heads our figures on 78 in this Leicester five-furlong contest, with Penny Arcade (75) and Wolf's Gallop (74) not far behind. We prefer Wolf's Gallop for its progressive profile, a case strong enough to look past the top of the ratings. Amber Ocean, Penny Arcade and Pretty Little Baby all loom as the chief dangers, and with confidence in this verdict on the low side, it looks a competitive renewal. Wolf's Gallop is our selection.
