Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Way With Words
Way With Words looks the one to beat at Galway, rated 113 on our figures and a significant 15 lb clear of Birdie Conway on 98, which is a sizeable gap in an eight-runner field with five of them unrated. Birdie Conway and Rocky Alfonso (97) are the obvious dangers, though both have plenty to find on our numbers, and the unrated runners add some uncertainty over two miles on good to soft ground. Way With Words has the best credentials on what we have, so he is our selection.
