Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Mystic Moment
Mystic Moment holds a clear edge in the ratings over this field, sitting several pounds ahead of the chasing pack over a mile at Epsom, and the good-to-firm ground is an additional positive. Loblolly shapes as the chief threat, with Chantelle and Trio also capable of making life awkward if Mystic Moment fails to reproduce her best. The confidence is only medium, so one eye on the dangers is warranted, but the form edge is genuine and hard to ignore. Mystic Moment is our selection.
