Ante-post favourite Hawkeyethenoo has missed the cut for Saturday's bluesq.com Stewards' Cup at Goodwood.

Jim Goldie's sprinter needed six withdrawals from the five-day declarations but only four rated higher than him, Elnawin, Global City, Damien and Quest For Success have not taken up the opportunity.

Topping the maximum 28 declarations is Richard Fahey's grand old campaigner Knot In Wood, who has been third twice in the past and will have 3lb taken off his back by Barry McHugh.

Also travelling from Fahey's Malton base are Saturday's Ascot winner Castles In The Air, the mount of Paul Hanagan, Kaldoun Kingdom (Lee Topliss), Johannes (Martin Lane) and Prime Exhibit (Dale Swift).

Last year's one-two, Genki and Evens And Odds are back again with Ayr Gold Cup winner Jimmy Styles also running.

David Nicholls, who last won the race in 2005 with Gift Horse, runs Striking Spirit, Evens And Odds and Sonny Red.

Johnny Mudball, Enact and Rileyskeepingfaith are others taking their chance.

Last year's winner Genki has been drawn in stall 25, with last Saturday's Ascot winner Castles In the Air in stall two, near his stablemate Kaldoun Kingdom in four.

Fellow Richard Fahey inmate Knot In Wood is drawn in nine.

Palace Moon will come out of stall 20 in the hands of Kieren Fallon, with Sir Michael Stoute's Enact in 27.
