Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Vape

Vape stands clear of this field on ratings and looks the one to beat in an eleven-runner Class 6 contest over seven furlongs at Chepstow on good-to-soft ground, holding an eight-pound edge over the nearest challengers that should prove decisive at this level. Rovinia and Angel's Call are the most likely threats, both rated 57, while Eye Of The Water at 56 could also make his presence felt, but none of them look likely to trouble a horse with Vape's clear superiority on ratings. The going should pose no concern, and with confidence running high, Vape is the selection.
