Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Haydock in June. Runner-up in Molecomb at Goodwood last time. 9/4, bit below form 2 lengths second of 10 to Inquisitively in listed race at York (5f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Has the best form and recent rain has helped his cause, so big player.

Forecasts

Beautiful Diamond (5/6), Purosangue (11/8), Toca Madera (9/2), Queen's Guard (8/1), Mon Na Slieve (11/1), Bombay Bazaar (20/1), Alfa Moonstone (150/1)

PUROSANGE was going the right way prior to a slight blip when only second in a listed contest at York last time and, with the ground likely to come in his favour, he takes preference over Beautiful Diamond, who is closely matched with the selection on form. Queen's Guard is the type to do better still and looks an interesting outsider.
