Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Cogital
Cogital shares the top rating in this ten-runner Class 6 contest over a mile and a half at Ffos Las but is preferred over co-rated Buck Barrow on the strength of a progressive profile that suggests there is more to come. Virtual Hug and Adrian, a couple of pounds behind, represent the most credible threats from a field that otherwise falls away sharply beneath the leading quartet. On balance, Cogital looks the one to be on.
