Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Alicious
Alicious heads our ratings on 114, four pounds clear of Elegantemente on 110, and that edge is enough to make her the one to beat in this Class 1 contest over sixteen furlongs on soft ground. The rating is the only evidence we have to lean on, but it puts her narrowly but firmly ahead of a competitive group. Elegantemente is the chief danger, with Sarahs Lawn on 108 and Thelittleballerina on 106 also close enough to take advantage if she is below her best in a 13-runner field. Alicious gets the nod, though this is a tight and open-looking race.
