Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Drish Samphire
Drish Samphire holds a progressive profile that suggests there is more to come, and in a wide-open twenty-runner sprint on good ground at Redcar that kind of upward trajectory can count for plenty against rivals whose ratings may more accurately reflect their ceiling. Macedonian heads the field on ratings, narrowly ahead of Ellie's de Vega and Stormy Pearl, and all three must be respected as the principal dangers in a race where margins between the leading contenders are slim. The confidence here is modest given the size of the field and the compressed nature of the ratings, but the case for picking out an improver in this grade is sound. Drish Samphire is our selection.
