Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Runswick

Runswick catches the eye on a progressive profile that suggests there is more to come over this Newmarket mile, and that upward curve gives reason to look past the three runners rated above him. Man of Vision and Looka hold narrow ratings advantages and Vincenzo Peruggia is level with him, and all must be respected as the chief dangers, with Man of Vision posing the greatest threat at the head of the field on paper. The selection may need things to fall right, but the progression angle is a legitimate reason to take him on. **Runswick** is our selection.
