Soghan^t²¹

Course winner. Failed to come on for recent run at Sandown (14f, good, 25/1) 21 days ago, but interesting now returning to the all-weather (all wins on synthetics).

Form: 125/1-49

Gold Arch^v⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Knight| OR: 79| C

9/4

4-time course winner. Latest win here in June. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at this course (14f) 4 days ago, no match for winner. Temperamental but should give another good account round here.

Form: 71-1242

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 78| BF| C

Form: 8-962

There’s a lot to like about SOGHAN’s profile on the all-weather, so he’s taken to put a couple of below-par efforts on turf behind him by making a successful return to synthetics. Gold Arch has done little wrong of late and should remain competitive, while True Destiny ought to appreciate these calmer waters.
