Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Jungle Ruler
Jungle Ruler heads this nine-runner Epsom mile on good ground narrowly ahead of the field on our ratings, carrying a five-pound edge over Dr Strangelove and seven pounds over Crown Office, and his profile suggests he is well-placed to translate that superiority into a victory at this class level. Dr Strangelove is the most obvious threat and will need to close that gap on the day, while Crown Office and Thanos also merit respect if Jungle Ruler fails to fire. On balance, the ratings edge combined with the demands of this Class 4 mile makes the case compelling, and Jungle Ruler is our selection.
