The Defiant^t¹⁴

33/1

Forecasts

Twilight Madness (9/2), Devil's Angel (5/1), Four Adaay (11/2), Penguin Island (11/2), Libra Tiger (11/2), Dolly Gray (6/1), Imperiousity (11/1), Recon Mission (12/1), Impeach (22/1), The Defiant (33/1), Lumacho (66/1)

IMPEACH took a big step back in the right direction when a debut third for Michael Attwater at Goodwood and can capitalise on a reduced mark now to gain a first turf success. In-form C&D winner Devil's Angel rates a big danger however, with the reliable Four Adaay and C&D scorer Recon Mission both in the mix too in a competitive sprint.
