Pundit corner

Pundit pick: Bill Silvers

Bill Silvers holds a clear advantage at the head of the ratings, sitting 10 lb clear of Slight Of Foot and 11 lb ahead of Star Of Beauty in a wide-open 18-runner field at Gowran Park over eight furlongs on good-to-firm ground. Slight Of Foot and Star Of Beauty represent the most credible threats from the chasing pack, while Minaun View cannot be entirely dismissed, though the rating gap makes it a tall order for any of them. The confidence here is high that Bill Silvers's superiority on form is enough to see him through, even in such a competitive contest. **Bill Silvers** is our selection.
