Son Of Man sits narrowly behind the top three on ratings, but his progressive profile and fitness edge make a compelling case that the bare figures understate his current ability over this twelve-furlong Kempton trip. Cumulonimbus heads the ratings and cannot be dismissed lightly, while Classical Allusion and Bulletin add depth to the threat, making this a genuinely competitive Class 3 heat. That said, a horse travelling through a campaign on an upward curve often outperforms a static number, and Son Of Man's condition looks sharper than those ahead of him on paper. **Son Of Man** is our selection.
