Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Much
Much has been showing a progressive profile that sets him apart from rivals rated similarly on paper, and over this extended trip on the Southwell Fibresand there is reason to believe he can continue that upward curve. Al Maslool sits narrowly ahead on ratings and represents the most obvious threat, while Grand Pier and Mr Moonshine are closely matched and cannot be discounted in what looks a competitive little heat. The confidence here is modest and any one of the main dangers could reverse the form on the day, but the progressive case for Much makes him the pick, and he is our selection.
