Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Glen Echo

Glen Echo rates 3 lb behind Priorstown on our figures but a progressive profile and clock that backs up the form make a compelling case for closing that gap on good ground over twelve furlongs at Roscommon. Priorstown, Captain Con and Sir Trancealot are the principal dangers in a competitive nineteen-runner field, with the top-rated Priorstown the most obvious threat given the narrow ratings advantage. The pick nonetheless looks to be going the right way and is selected with confidence. Glen Echo is our selection.
