Pundit pick: TurbogeistDiffers from our pick

Turbogeist is the one to be with at Stratford, rated 110 on our figures and 10 points clear of Secret Jet Away on 100 in a Class 4 over two miles on good to firm. Secret Jet Away is the main danger and the only other runner we can put a figure on, so the rest of the field is hard to weigh up, which keeps our confidence modest. Even so, Turbogeist has the strongest credentials on what we have, and he gets the nod.
