Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Gaoth Chuil

Gaoth Chuil sits just three pounds behind the head of our figures in this 23-runner race over today's 16-furlong trip at Galway on good ground, and her progressive profile is enough to get the nod ahead of the top-rated. Black Heather tops our figures and remains the obvious danger, while Ocean Of Dreams and Sea Eagle also feature among the leading threats. Gaoth Chuil is our selection here, and we do so with high confidence.
