Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Timely Salute
Timely Salute heads the ratings narrowly ahead of Zooter and Hello Garda, and on a sound surface over this staying trip at Newton Abbot there is enough in the book to suggest he can translate that edge into a winning performance. Zooter and Hello Garda represent the chief dangers from the rated runners, while the unrated quartet could spring a surprise on limited evidence. On balance, Timely Salute is our selection, though the confidence is modest given the unknowns in the field.
