Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Venture Capital
Venture Capital heads the field on ratings, sitting narrowly ahead of Almarada Prince and a few pounds clear of First Folio, though the soft ground at Ripon introduces enough uncertainty to keep confidence measured. Almarada Prince and First Folio are the most credible dangers and are capable of closing that gap if conditions suit them particularly well, while Fortamour should not be entirely dismissed in a ten-runner field over six furlongs. The selection holds the edge on current form and ability, and on balance the ratings case just about holds up. Venture Capital is the pick.
