Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: South Shore Island
South Shore Island is our selection, level with Valsharah at the top of our ratings but preferred on a more progressive profile. Valsharah has been running well of late and remains the chief danger, with Stormy Pearl and Dolly's Delight both holding claims of their own on recent form. Confidence is low in this contest, but South Shore Island's overall picture edges it for us.
