The Golden Unicorn⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J F Egan| T: P D Evans

13/8

Pleasing debut here in June when staying on from the rear to finish 3L second. The leaders may have gone off too hard on that occasion so could be flattered but the winner has won both starts since and is now rated 85 so merits strong consideration.

Form: 2

Made the frame on second start at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month; though still beaten close to 6L at the line; drops back down in trip now and needs more improvement.

The Golden Unicorn (13/8), Professor Galant (15/8), Black Sparrow (7/2), Miss Fernanda (11/2), Teddy B (9/1), Acquisitor (18/1), Red Fescue (18/1), Clady (80/1)

Having finished second to a now 85-rated winner on debut over C&D in June THE GOLDEN UNICORN could prove a tough nut to crack here with improvement likely. He's got the best claims on form ahead of Professor Galant; who shaped with some promise at Newbury in fifth. Red Fescue could have a big say on debut; while Teddy B also has the scope to get involved on his introduction.
