Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: We've Got This
We've Got This is our pick in a tightly packed 17-runner Class 6 over ten furlongs, rated 70 and just a pound behind Kathleen Mary, but we prefer her for a fitness edge and a progressive profile that should count on the good to soft ground. Kathleen Mary is narrowly ahead on our figures and is the obvious danger, while Grindleton shares our selection's rating of 70 and Stipulation, on 67, is not far behind. With so little between the leading contenders and a big field to negotiate, this is no formality, but the improver looks the right one to side with. We've Got This is the selection.
