Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Ice Jet

Ice Jet has a progressive profile that makes him an appealing proposition here despite sitting a couple of pounds behind the top-rated Hooper in the assessments, and over this stamina-testing sixteen furlongs at Newton Abbot on good ground there is every reason to expect him to close that gap and more. Hooper is the principal danger as the highest-rated runner in the field, while Gore Point and Cobbler's Boy will need to improve to get involved. Ice Jet is the selection.
