Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Port Louis
Port Louis arrives at Ffos Las with a progressive profile that makes the narrow rating deficit to Royal Bodyguard less telling than it appears on paper, and a fitness edge over rivals who may not be at their sharpest adds further appeal over this mile trip on good ground. Royal Bodyguard and The Stone Power, rated just a pound clear and level respectively, represent the primary dangers and will need to be seen off, while John Harrison merits respect if running to a better level than his rating suggests. Port Louis is the selection.
