Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party

Pundit pick: Moulin Booj

Moulin Booj heads the ratings by a pound over American Bay and sits narrowly ahead of True Promise and Tiva, giving her a slender but genuine edge on paper in this competitive twelve-runner sprint at Thirsk. The concern is that the margin is thin enough for any one of those three dangers to overturn it on the day, and low confidence tempers the case for her. That said, she is the pick on ratings and merits her place at the head of affairs. **Selection: Moulin Booj.**
