Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Dunkerque
Dunkerque and Samuel Spade are level at the head of the ratings, but it is Dunkerque who earns the nod on the back of a progressive profile that suggests there is more to come, a fitness edge that could prove decisive over this extended trip of twenty-two furlongs at Stratford, and proven ability on good-to-firm ground that makes conditions ideal. Samuel Spade represents the most obvious threat as a horse rated on the same mark, while Krak, four pounds adrift, cannot be entirely dismissed if either of the front two fail to fire. The selection is Dunkerque.
