Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Cheesy Icon

Cheesy Icon is our selection at Southwell, and the case rests on a progressive profile that makes him more appealing than his rating alone suggests. At 117 he sits only five pounds behind the joint top-rated pair, Marche d'Aligre and Four Springs, both on 122, so the gap is small enough for his upward trajectory to close it. Those two are the chief dangers, with Lady Kara on 112 also needing respect in a compact six-runner field. This is a tight call, but Cheesy Icon is the pick.
