GUILDSMAN was a fine third in the Coventry before everything went wrong for him at Goodwood, and he makes a little more appeal at this trip than Lope Y Fernandez, who is dropping back from seven furlongs. Fort Myers was a length behind the selection in the Coventry, and should be on the premises if excused a blip in the Railway Stakes here last time.
