Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Obito

Obito holds a clear advantage over this field on our figures, rated nine pounds clear of the nearest pursuer Magical Merlot and a full ten pounds ahead of Supplicate, making a compelling case for a straightforward success over ten furlongs on good ground at Redcar. Magical Merlot and Supplicate are the most credible dangers, with Pol Roger also meriting respect at a further three pounds below Supplicate, though none of the three looks well-placed to bridge a gap of that magnitude if Obito runs to anything close to his rating. With the remainder of the field trailing considerably further adrift, this looks a race built for Obito to take control and see the trip out comfortably. The selection is Obito.
