Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Jodhpur Blue

Jodhpur Blue holds a narrow edge over the field on ratings and steps into this Bath Class 6 contest over twelve furlongs on good ground with plenty in his favour, sitting three pounds clear of the next-best Shaffron and five ahead of Trojan Truth, both of whom represent the chief dangers along with Belle Amie, who cannot be entirely dismissed despite a more significant gap back. The form profile here is competitive enough to warrant some caution, but Jodhpur Blue's advantage at the head of the assessments makes him the most credible winning proposition in a modest contest. Jodhpur Blue is our selection.
