Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Sunshine Diamond

Sunshine Diamond is our selection at Worcester, and the case rests on a progressive profile and a proven record on these conditions, which is enough to side with him over the top-rated Happy And Fine, who is only three pounds better on our figures. That narrow gap is far from decisive over this marathon 23-furlong trip, and Sunshine Diamond's 125 puts him firmly in the thick of it. Happy And Fine is the chief danger, with Muskoka and Island Bridge also capable of bridging the small gaps behind. This looks a competitive contest, but Sunshine Diamond is the one to be with.
