Pundit pick: Albion PowerDiffers from our pick

Albion Power holds a progressive profile that makes him the preferred pick in this competitive eight-furlong contest on good-to-soft ground at Bellewstown, and that upward trajectory gives reason to believe his current rating of 64 does not tell the full story. The top-rated Perfect Judgement sits narrowly ahead on 67, and that rival cannot be dismissed, while Land Of The Giants on 63 and Bright Dick on 62 also enter the danger column in what shapes as a closely matched heat. Albion Power's improving profile suggests there is more to come, and on that basis he is fancied to come out on top.
