Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Butchers Bill
Butchers Bill heads this eleven-runner Class 5 event over twenty-three furlongs at Worcester on good ground, rated narrowly ahead of Daaris and a few rating points clear of Crafty Gael, though the confidence in him translating that edge into victory is modest. Daaris and Crafty Gael are the primary threats and could make this a genuine contest, while Brionywells also warrants respect at the foot of the main danger list. With a marginal edge on form over his closest rivals, Butchers Bill is the selection.
