Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Eagles Dream
Eagles Dream holds a clear edge in the ratings over this field, sitting eight pounds ahead of the next-best pair Thats My Boy Luke and Book Of Life, though the confidence behind this selection is modest and any one of those three dangers, along with King Sharja, could outrun their ratings on the day. The good ground at Musselburgh over eight furlongs should be a fair test, and on paper Eagles Dream has the strongest profile in a Class 6 contest where the remainder are closely bunched. The selection is Eagles Dream.
