Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Eve's Boy
Eve's Boy heads our ratings at 70, a clear six pounds better than his nearest pursuer Gressington on 64, and that margin gives him the edge in a modest Class 6 contest over the Newcastle mile. Gressington is the main danger, with Just Typical on 62 and Falcon Nine on 60 also within range if the top-rated runner fails to settle. The remainder look to have plenty to find, with One More Bottle at the foot of the ratings on 44. Eve's Boy is the selection.
