Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Newfangled

Newfangled is preferred here on the strength of a progressive profile that suggests he is still improving, making her a compelling alternative to the top-rated On The Inlet despite sitting a pound beneath him on our figures. On The Inlet heads the ratings and cannot be dismissed lightly, while Pints In Peace and Marsh Benham are also dangers capable of making this competitive across Brighton's eight furlongs. The verdict is offered with modest confidence, but a horse still travelling in the right direction on good-to-firm ground can outperform a bare rating, and Newfangled is the selection.
