Can spoil his chance with slow starts but he is talented and ran up to his best when beaten just over a length into fourth at Leicester (7f) 14 days ago. Contender if on a going day.

Won his first 3 starts. Lost his unbeaten record when only seventh in Newcastle Class 2 on Northumberland Plate day but could easily get back on the up now tackling turf for the first time.

Three-time 7f winner last term. Another good effort when second on Musselburgh return in April. Two runs since underwhelming but the latter was in the very competitive Victoria Cup. May bounce back.

Quite useful but has now gone 16 runs since last win in 2020. 17/2, sixth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 14 days ago, never nearer. Others more persuasive.

Quickly made up into a useful sprinter at 3. Not disgraced in big-field Ascot handicap on return and something can't have been right at Haydock 3 weeks later. Freshened up since. Up in trip.

Made winning debut on the Rowley course here last summer. Better form in defeat later in the campaign and he probably should be judged too harshly on his reappearance run in Britannia at Royal Ascot.

Looked very promising in the early stages of last season,. Shade disappointing since but soft ground may not have suited at Goodwood last time and his mark continues to ease.

12/1
Ran creditably behind an improver when second of 7 in handicap at Brighton (7f) in June and not disgraced when last of 5 (beaten under 2 lengths) at Redcar since. Yet to win a handicap, though.

Forecasts

Star Of Orion (9/4), Corvair (4/1), Red Mirage (5/1), Typhoon Ten (13/2), Twaasol (10/1), Marshal Dan (11/1), Musicality (11/1), Rovaniemi (12/1)

Verdict

A trappy finale. There's no reason why RED MIRAGE won't prove as effective on turf and he's taken to bounce back after Newcastle and notch a fourth win from only 5 starts. Musicality has been given time to get over a poor run at Haydock and is taken to bounce back to form and provide the chief threat ahead of Corvair.

  1. RED MIRAGE (IRE)
  2. MUSICALITY
  3. CORVAIR (IRE)
