Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Howlin Wolf
Howlin Wolf arrives here on a progressive profile that makes him an appealing proposition over this six furlongs on soft ground at Cork, and while he sits narrowly behind the top-rated Cyclone Code on our figures, the direction of travel matters as much as the snapshot, and his trajectory suggests there is more to come. Cyclone Code, rated a couple of pounds clear of Howlin Wolf, and Pink Venom, level with him on our figures, represent the most obvious dangers alongside the well-exposed Fine Line, and none of them can be dismissed lightly in a competitive seven-runner field. The selection is Howlin Wolf.
