Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Motta Alta
Staysound Susie heads the field on ratings but Motta Alta is preferred here on the strength of a progressive profile that suggests she has more improvement to come, and soft ground over six furlongs at Cork looks well suited to her profile. Staysound Susie, By The Lake and Flash Of Fire are the chief dangers and cannot be dismissed lightly, though the progressive case for our selection is persuasive enough to side with at medium confidence. The verdict is for Motta Alta.
