Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Pigeon House

Pigeon House heads this Class 5 chase at Stratford on a rating narrowly ahead of the chasing pack, and over an extended distance of eighteen furlongs on good ground the selection has the profile to see it out. At The Oche and Chillhi represent the most pressing dangers and cannot be dismissed lightly, while Mountain Port lurks just below them and is capable of outrunning a modest rating on his day. The case for the selection rests on that edge in quality, though the proximity of the principals means this is far from a straightforward win, and Pigeon House is taken to do just enough to justify the nod.
