Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Mumford's Magic
Mumford's Magic gets the nod in this three-runner Southwell contest, and our ratings put him top at 120, four pounds clear of Axel Bleue on 116 and eight ahead of Limerick Leader on 112. That is a modest but real edge over a stiff 26f trip on good ground, and he looks the one to beat on balance. Axel Bleue is the chief danger given how little separates them, while Limerick Leader needs to find improvement to bridge the gap, and confidence is only low given the tight margins. Mumford's Magic is the selection.
