Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Real Gain
Real Gain merits consideration despite sitting a few pounds below the top-rated trio, with a progressive profile and a fitness edge over rivals who may need this run counting in his favour on testing ground over eight furlongs at Goodwood. Swing Vote holds the highest rating in the field and cannot be dismissed, while Godwinson and Oliver Show are equally weighted and will pose a stiff test if they translate their ability to soft conditions. Confidence is modest here, but the upward trajectory and readiness to run make the case for taking a chance. Real Gain is our selection.
