Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Presenting Lad
Presenting Lad heads this Tramore field on a rating ten pounds clear of Itsalonglongroad and carries that advantage into a strongly run two-mile test on good ground where his class should tell. Itsalonglongroad and Bossing It are the most credible threats, with Katherine also capable of making her presence felt if producing a performance close to her best. The selection's rating margin over his nearest rivals is substantial enough to suggest he can concede weight in class and still come out on top, though the medium confidence reflects that jumping and staying this trip cleanly will be required. Presenting Lad is the selection.
