Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Cosmo Brown

Cosmo Brown heads this 14-runner Bath mile-and-five-eighths contest on good-to-firm ground, sitting narrowly ahead of Percy Jones and Virtue Diligence, who share the same rating a pound behind, with Zarco a further two back and representing the chief dangers in what looks a competitive Class 5 heat. He tops our ratings on 73, and with the selection holding a clear edge in quality over the bottom half of the field, there is every reason to expect him to translate that advantage into a winning performance. Percy Jones and Virtue Diligence will push him hardest, and Zarco cannot be entirely dismissed at the weights, but Cosmo Brown's marginal superiority across a wide field gives his connections plenty of reason for confidence. The selection is Cosmo Brown.
