William Buick

Happy Power

J: William Buick
T: Andrew Balding
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-5
OR: 110
Days: 33

This son of Dark Angel has won eight races from 6f to 1m on ground varying from good to firm to soft so it shows he can adapt well to different conditions.

Finished 1 1/4l behind Sandrine when fourth of 11 at big odds of 28/1 on his latest outing last time out.

Has course and distance form here at Goodwood as he won this race two years ago so a repeat performance of that could see him go very close, has to be respected and has a big

chance.

Richard Kingscote

Misty Grey

J: Richard Kingscote
T: Tom Dascombe
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-5
OR: 108
Days: 15

Has won six races from 6f to 7f on good ground and on the all-weather so very versatile when it comes to running on a variety of different ground.

Probably showed his best form last season and was very disappointing on his previous start.

He was beaten 12l behind Intrinsic Bond at 15/2 when last of 14 other rivals at Ripon and it would certainly be a surprise to see him feature here in this Group 3 event.

Trainer Tom Dascombe currently operating at a 15% strike rate in the past two weeks.

Jack Mitchell

Double Or Bubble

J: Jack Mitchell
T: Chris Wall
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-5
OR: 109
Days: 50

Winner of five races from 6f to 7f on ground varying from good to firm to good to soft so is very much adaptable just like the current market leader Happy Power.

Finished 4l behind Alcohol Free when fifth of 13 on her latest outing in what was a Group 1 race.

She has also just been beaten over three lengths on her last two starts both in Group 1 company and Chris Wall's mare has a huge opportunity to get back to winning ways down in grade and also back up to 7f which will be sure to suit.

Highly respected as her class can see her being competitive, for sure to be in the mix this time round.

Tom Marquand

Sunset Bay

J: Tom Marquand
T: Ed Walker
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-2
OR: 91
Days: 22

Successful twice at 7f on good to firm and soft ground so trip will not be an issue as she is sure to stay the distance but finished 3 1/2l behind Rising Star when sixth of 10 previously.

Trainer Ed Walker currently operating at a 25% strike rate in the last 14 days so is going well but for this 4 yo, it looks a hefty task this time round.

Lowest rated horse in the race and looks easily opposable.

Jason Hart

I'm A Gambler

J: Jason Hart
T: Charlie & Mark Johnston
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-0
OR: 103
Days: 1

Winner of six races from 6f to 7f on good to firm and good ground and that really seems to suit this horse.

A big priced winner at 18/1 over this course and distance last time out beating the Richard Hannon trained Gisburn by 1 3/4l, which was impressive.

He has also won 3 times this season and will look to give this trainer combo another winner as Mark Johnston recently hit the 5000 winner mark.

A fairly inconsistent sort who can be given a chance if running to his best.

Kieran Shoemark

Ever Given

J: Kieran Shoemark
T: Hugo Palmer
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-0
OR: 107
Days: 33

Hugo Palmer’s 3 yo will be hoping for some cut in the ground here as that will help the horse massively and could mean he has a big chance going off that ground.

Winner of six races from 6f to 7f on ground varying from good to soft.

Another horse who has showed similar form as he finished 3 1/2l behind Sandrine when sixth of 11 at a fairly big price of 16/1 last time out.

Has won at both Epsom and Chester this season. Ground has a chance of being in his favour but 2lb worse off than Happy Power.
