Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Creative Queen
Creative Queen arrives at Yarmouth narrowly behind the top-rated pair on these figures, but her progressive profile makes a compelling case that she is a filly still on the upgrade and capable of outrunning that modest gap on soft ground over five furlongs. Lil Brother and Sea Cookie, level at the head of the ratings, represent the most obvious dangers, with Diomed Duke a pound further back but not without a shout. Confidence is tempered given the closeness of the field, yet a filly continuing to improve has the edge over rivals who may already be showing their ceiling. Creative Queen is the selection.
