Pundit pick: Mind Those Steps

Mind Those Steps arrives at Haydock with a progressive profile that makes a compelling case for getting the nod over Persian Land, who sits narrowly ahead on ratings but may not be improving at the same rate. The soft seven furlongs here looks tailor-made for a horse on the upgrade, and with Kodiak Breeze and Trumpety Trump also meriting respect as the principal dangers, the race sets up as a competitive but penetrable Class 4. Mind Those Steps is the selection.
