Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Booziebrunch
Booziebrunch heads this Wolverhampton mile-and-a-quarter contest on the all-weather narrowly ahead of Knowledge and Silken Bay, who share the same rating and represent the most credible threats alongside Lucky Luna, and on ratings alone our selection holds a modest edge over the remainder of the field. The ten-furlong trip on a standard surface looks suitable, and with the rating advantage there to be exploited, the case for supplementing that rating advantage with a performance to match is a reasonable one. Knowledge and Silken Bay will need to find improvement to bridge the gap, while Lucky Luna is another who cannot be dismissed entirely if the principals fail to fire. Booziebrunch is our selection.
