Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Turbogeist

Turbogeist heads the ratings narrowly ahead of Whin Cover and holds a more meaningful edge over Thetype Istitle and Esther Spring, giving him a solid case on paper in this Class 5 contest over the extended trip at Worcester. The step up to sixteen furlongs on good ground will be the test, and Whin Cover, only five pounds below, represents the most obvious threat alongside Thetype Istitle, who could outrun his rating if conditions suit. Confidence is not high in a wide-open contest containing several unrated rivals whose current form is impossible to assess, but the ratings point to one horse holding a genuine advantage at the head of affairs. Turbogeist is the selection.
