“Raced in the pack and pulled early - crept closer after 3 out - upsides 2 out - edged ahead despite a scruffy jump at the last - strongly driven on the run-in - won by the narrowest margin”

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Evaluation

Evaluation is our selection at Kelso, and he is only a pound behind the joint top-rated pair, Do No Wrong and Bold Light, on our figures, so there is little between them. He gets the nod for his fitness edge and a progressive profile that suggests there could be more to come over this 21f trip on good ground. Do No Wrong and Bold Light are the obvious dangers on ratings, with Klitschko also in the mix on 110, so this looks a tight contest rather than a straightforward one. Evaluation is the pick, though only with low confidence.
