Pundit pick: Old Joanie

Old Joanie heads this fourteen-runner Naas contest rated narrowly ahead of Golden Arizona and four points clear of Elyatta, giving her a solid edge at the top of the field over eight furlongs on good ground. The main dangers come from Golden Arizona, who is closely matched on ratings and will need to be accounted for, while Elyatta and Cromane are capable of closing the gap if Old Joanie fails to fire. Confidence is medium rather than high, so a bold front-running or well-timed challenge will be needed to confirm the rating advantage in what shapes as a competitive renewal. Our selection is Old Joanie.
