Quickthorn²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: H Morrison| OR: 111| CD

2/9

Front runner who slipped the field when a wide-margin winner of the Goodwood Cup last summer and did the same in the Lonsdale Cup next time. Not the force of old this season but faces an easier assignment now.

Form: 116-546

Drawn To Dream^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 101

6/1

Useful filly who hasn't really been firing lately and is unlikely to be able to lead with Quickthorn in opposition.

Form: 14-6684

Salsada^p⁸²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Loughnane| T: B Ellison| OR: 86

9/1

Useful mare who was below form over hurdles on latest outing 82 days ago. Probably set for a struggle in this company.

Form: 111674/

Forecasts

Quickthorn (2/9), Sumo Sam (15/8), Drawn To Dream (6/1), Salsada (9/1), Clear Storm (66/1)

None of this quintet arrive in form but QUICKTHORN wasn't disgraced last time and should be hard to pass if he can build up a lead. Sumo Sam may contest the pace and is closely matched with the selection at the weights, while Drawn To Dream is no forlorn hope if able to bounce back.
