Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Hope Rising
Hope Rising has been showing a progressive profile that makes her an appealing proposition despite sitting a few pounds below the top-rated Percy Jones and St Hilda in these ratings, and over thirteen furlongs on the Lingfield all-weather surface there is every reason to believe she can continue that upward curve. Percy Jones heads the field on ratings and must be respected, while St Hilda and Celestarak are also capable of making this competitive. The confidence here is tempered, but the ongoing improvement in Hope Rising's profile is the basis for siding with her, and she is our selection.
