Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Ray Mon Dough
Ray Mon Dough heads this nine-runner Windsor sprint on good-to-firm ground with a narrow edge over the field, sitting six pounds clear of Under The Twilight and eight ahead of Righthere Rightnow, though the low confidence here reflects the competitive nature of the race and the lurking threats from those two rivals alongside Cashbox. Under The Twilight and Righthere Rightnow are capable of closing that gap on their day, and Cashbox should not be underestimated over the six furlongs, so this is far from a straightforward assignment. That said, Ray Mon Dough holds the strongest profile in the field and merits respect at the top of the ratings. Ray Mon Dough is the selection.
