Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Wechaad

Wechaad sits three pounds behind the top-rated Military Code on these figures, but a progressive profile suggests there is more to come from this runner and that narrow gap on paper may well understate his current level of ability. Military Code brings strong credentials and will be the chief threat, with Zooming and Langstone also capable of making their presence felt in a competitive fourteen-runner field at Doncaster over seven furlongs on good ground. This is a tricky puzzle with several credible claims and confidence is not high, but the upward trajectory tips the balance. Wechaad is our selection.
