Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Glamazon
Glamazon heads this 15-runner seven-furlong contest at Gowran Park narrowly ahead of Oppenheimer and holds a clear edge over the remainder of the field, with her rating placing her meaningfully above the bulk of rivals on good-to-firm ground. Oppenheimer represents the most obvious threat, with Sunrise Angel and Fontaine Khaled also capable of making their presence felt if outrunning their assessments. The selection's superiority over the field as a whole, however, makes her a confident choice. **Glamazon** is our selection.
