Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Freedom Bay
Freedom Bay holds a rating of 52 in this thirteen-runner Lingfield affair, sitting six pounds behind the top-rated Kaaress but sharing that mark with Taskheer and Ernie McCrew, and the case for our selection rests on a progressive profile that suggests there may be more to come over this ten-furlong standard surface. Kaaress is the most obvious threat on ratings alone, while Taskheer and Ernie McCrew will be competing for the same prize at identical marks and cannot be dismissed. The confidence here is modest given the competitive nature of a field at this level, but a horse continuing to improve has its appeal in this sort of contest. Freedom Bay is the selection.
