Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Damysus
Damysus heads this competitive nine-furlong York contest narrowly ahead of Persica and Point Lynas, who share the same rating four pounds behind, and that edge looks meaningful enough on the good-to-soft ground. Persica and Point Lynas are the most credible threats and should not be underestimated, while Naqeeb, eight pounds adrift, could outrun his rating if the pace suits. The field of thirteen adds an element of uncertainty, but Damysus holds the clearest credentials at the weights and is the selection.
