In-running (Parikarma (IRE))
“Set the pace from the outset unheld - clipped the pair of markers three and two from home - briefly reeled in after the second-last - urged along and eased clear approaching the home bend - soon dominant - kept driving after the final obstacle to assert”

Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Parikarma
Parikarma rates a few pounds below the top two on paper, but a fitness edge and a progressive profile make her an appealing each-way proposition in this ten-runner Class 5 contest at Stratford, where the trip of twenty-two furlongs should suit her well. Blackwater Lilly and Leave Her To Me are the chief dangers, rated narrowly ahead, and Mistral Blue holds a slender claim too, so this is far from a straightforward contest. The confidence here is modest, and punters should be aware the selection is taken on potential rather than an outright ratings superiority. On balance, the preference is for Parikarma.
