Pundit pick: Paris Babe

Paris Babe heads this nine-runner Wolverhampton seven-furlong contest narrowly ahead of Inside Story on ratings, with Orchid and Tarot also lurking as genuine threats in what looks a competitive Class 4 heat. The selection's edge over Inside Story is modest, and Orchid's proximity on ratings means this is no foregone conclusion. That said, Paris Babe's standing at the top of these figures gives her the marginal call, and on balance she is the one to be with. **Paris Babe** is our selection.
