Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Clocker
Clocker may sit two points behind the top-rated Simply Ruby on these figures, but a progressive profile makes a compelling case that the gap understates his current ability, and soft ground over thirteen furlongs at Hamilton looks tailor-made for a horse still on the upgrade. Simply Ruby heads the dangers as the highest-rated runner in the field, with Perseus Way and Ibn Altheeb also capable of making their presence felt in what shapes as a competitive Class 5 contest. The vote goes to Clocker.
