Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Arapaho Gold

Arapaho Gold heads the ratings in this competitive Class 1 six-furlong contest at Newbury and, on figures alone, holds a narrow edge over the closest pursuers, but the confidence here is modest given the quality ranged against him. Jolivette, just a couple of pounds behind, represents the most immediate threat and cannot be readily dismissed, while Cut A Dash and Adaay of Scarlett are also firmly in the picture and capable of reversing the slim rating advantage on the day. The selection's edge is real but slender, and this looks a race that could be decided by small margins. On balance, Arapaho Gold is our selection.
