West Country: Tim Mitchell

Sweet Pursuit(8.15 Lingfield, nap)

Solid efforts since switched to handicaps and readily opened her account over course and distance last month. With conditions ideal she could follow up off a 6lb higher mark.

Racing Post Ratings: Paul Curtis

Scorching Heat(1.50 Goodwood, nap)

Posted a career-best RPR of 90 when beaten a neck into second at Newmarket last time. Has conditions to suit and a reproduction should put him on the premises.

You're Hired(5.20 Goodwood)

Successful at this meeting last year, Amanda Perrett's lightly raced four-year-old was progressive last season and can make a winning reappearance.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Hoof It(3.35 Goodwood)

Won this race in 2011. Would have needed his recent comeback and can't be discounted at his favourite venue.

Ireland: Justin O’Hanlon

Deep Breath (4.15 Galway)

Overcame greenness to touch off a subsequent winner on debut last month and did well to finish third after a slow start in the opening nursery of the season at the Curragh. The longer trip should suit and will take all the beating if handling the ground.
