Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Norflondonforever
Norflondonforever heads our ratings on 69 and gets the nod in this modest Class 6 contest over 11 furlongs at Southwell. He is only narrowly ahead of Fleur de Mer on 67 and Risen Again on 66, so this is no formality, but that edge is enough to make him the one to beat. Revelio on 64 also has to be respected, while the rest look to have plenty to find on our figures, with Beat The Odds and Rajawail well adrift. Norflondonforever is our selection.
