Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Duke Of Luckley

Duke Of Luckley heads the ratings narrowly ahead of Seeyouinmydreams and In This World in what is a closely contested staying heat over seventeen furlongs at Stratford on good-to-firm ground, though the proximity of those two rivals means there is precious little margin for error. Seeyouinmydreams and In This World represent the chief dangers and either could overturn the small ratings advantage if conditions or the run of the race suit them, while Beorma, though a step below on the figures, cannot be entirely dismissed in a small field. On balance, Duke Of Luckley's narrow edge at the top of the ratings earns him the nod, and he is our selection.
