Pundit pick: Go Vince Go

Go Vince Go holds a narrow edge over a cluster of rivals rated within a pound on this six-furlong Class 4 assignment at Ripon on good ground, and in a wide-open 20-runner field that slender advantage is at least a starting point. Westmorian, Grant Wood and Anaisa all come into the race on identical ratings and represent the chief threats, meaning the margin for error is slim and the race is genuinely competitive at the top of the field. The selection's superiority is real if modest, and in a sprint of this nature with so many runners any amount of things can go against you in running. Go Vince Go is the call, if with limited conviction.
