Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Edwin Hubble
Edwin Hubble heads this ten-runner Sandown Class 4 contest on ratings, sitting narrowly ahead of Raspoutine and a few pounds clear of Mythological Star and Barbury Boy, and he looks capable of translating that edge into a performance over this ten-furlong trip. Raspoutine represents the most immediate threat, with Mythological Star and Barbury Boy not far behind in the weights and capable of making life difficult if Edwin Hubble fails to fire. Confidence is moderate rather than absolute, but the form and ratings point in one direction, and Edwin Hubble is the selection.
