Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Brains
Brains is level with Wegotogether on our ratings, the pair inseparable at the top of a wide-open sixteen-runner field over this eight-furlong trip on good-to-soft ground at Bellewstown, and there is nothing to choose between them on the figures. Wegotogether represents the most obvious threat, while Rampage and Distillate, both 4 points off the pace, cannot be discounted in a race where the overall depth of form leaves plenty of room for surprises. This is a competitive affair with little to separate several runners, and confidence is modest, but on balance Brains is the call.
