Pundit pick: Double PowerfulDiffers from our pick

Double Powerful heads the field on our figures at 138, a clear six pounds better than All The Glory on 132, and that gap should count over 22 furlongs at Fontwell. All The Glory is the main danger and could pressure him if the pace is steady, while Glen To Glen on 129 sits a few pounds further back but is not out of it. Inca de Lafayette, rated 123, looks to have the most to find in a small field of four. Double Powerful looks the soundest of the quartet and is our selection.
