Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Sailthisshipalone
Three runners share the top rating here, with Sailthisshipalone among them on soft ground over seven furlongs at Ayr, and it is a progressive profile that tips the balance in its favour over the equally-rated Son and Cotai Belle, who must both be respected as chief dangers alongside Quest For Fun, narrowly adrift. The confidence here is modest given how tightly matched the principals are, but Sailthisshipalone's upward trajectory gives it the edge. The selection is Sailthisshipalone.
