Pundit pick: Project Geofin

Project Geofin heads this Beverley field on a rating three points clear of Rapide Vega and four ahead of Shimmering Sands, and on soft ground over ten furlongs the selection has the profile to make that edge count. Rapide Vega and Shimmering Sands are the most credible threats, with Everyoneknowsadave also meriting respect on similar figures, but none of them look likely to trouble a horse operating at this level with a clear rating advantage. Project Geofin is the selection.
