Pundit pick: Chosen Shant

Chosen Shant heads this 17-runner field on good ground at Wexford with a clear edge over the chasing pack, sitting six pounds clear of Teagarden Jazz and seven ahead of Annie Agnew on our assessments. Eaglewood also merits respect among the dangers but cannot match the profile of our selection at this trip of 17 furlongs. Chosen Shant's superiority in the ratings, combined with high confidence in the selection, makes the case straightforward. **Chosen Shant** is our selection.
