Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Del Corso

Del Corso heads this small Newmarket field rated eight pounds clear of the next best and looks well placed to justify that advantage over ten furlongs on good to firm ground. Femme Beauty, rated 72, is the most credible threat and will need to close a meaningful gap, while Dont Get Me Wrong and Pipily are not without each-way claims if Del Corso fails to fire. On balance, the ratings edge combined with the likely pace of a four-runner heat points firmly enough to our selection, and Del Corso is taken to see out the trip and score.
