Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Celestra

Celestra holds a clear edge on our ratings heading into this Class 4 contest at Epsom over a mile, sitting seven pounds ahead of the next best and looking the most credible performer in a modest field of four. Trio is the most obvious threat at a rating of 81 and will need to step up to land a blow, while Chantelle and Too Hot To Tango fill out the danger list without posing a serious case for overturning the selection on known form. The going at Epsom is good to firm, and on a straightforward reading of the evidence available, Celestra is taken to justify her superiority. **Selection: Celestra.**
