Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Geryon

Geryon heads this seven-runner Goodwood mile-and-a-half contest on form, sitting narrowly ahead of Shaihaan and with a modest edge over the remainder of the field, though the closeness of the ratings at the top of the order means this is far from a straightforward assignment. Shaihaan and Venetian Lace are the most likely to cause problems, with Bay Of Brilliance also capable of making his presence felt on these ratings. The selection will need to be at his best to see off those rivals, and this is taken on trust rather than with any great degree of certainty. **Geryon** is our selection.
