Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Brian

The heavy going at Haydock can expose horses quickly, and Brian has already been seen over this trip and this ground, which counts for plenty here. Korker and Star Anthem are the most obvious threats, with Rhoscolyn also worth watching given the conditions, but Brian has the edge in class and form to hold them at bay. Brian is our selection.
