Gold Souk³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 86

11/4

Set the standard when winning an Epsom maiden last time out over an extended 1m (made all) putting his experience to good use and bouncing back well from a Goodwood disappointment. Looks the type to improve further (handicap debut); mark looks fair.

Form: 7301

World Title³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 85| CD

9/4

Claimed his second win when making his nursery debut last time finding this C&D more to his liking (previous win, 7f). Justified market confidence over three rivals (won with something in hand); raised 4lb which should not prevent a bold bid.

Form: 3131

Strawman¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Connor Beasley| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 78| D

6/5

Improved on his third start when despite still looking as though he needed the experience, he ran out a decisive winner over this trip at Carlisle. Showed that he handled cut in the ground on that occasion; now makes his handicap debut.

Form: 421

Lawaa²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: R A Fahey| OR: 71

14/1

One of three in his making his handicap debut but so far, he doesn't appear to be progressing (could have been unsuited by conditions, heavy, last time). Comes from a quality establishment so can't be written off despite a stiff opening mark.

Form: 305

Forecasts

Strawman (6/5), World Title (9/4), Gold Souk (11/4), Out Of Breath (5/1), Lawaa (14/1)

An awkward little contest to sort out with none if the quartet seemingly out of this although Lawaa will need to improve on what he’s shown so far. The other trio all won last time out with STRAWMAN perhaps having the most scope for progress having looked far from the finished article at Carlisle last time recording a good time in the process. World Title may have a couple of victories to his name but the form of those brace of wins doesn’t look that strong and the main danger is likely to come from Gold Souk. He looks a straightforward type who may well be suited by this track having coped well with the undulations at Epsom when making all last time.
