'He has a cracking chance' - find out who Saffie Osborne fancies at Goodwood

Who wins a typically competitive Stewards' Cup (3.20)?

Rupert Bell, broadcaster I'm siding with the Ed Bethell-trained Regional. Ryan Moore takes the ride, which is a huge positive, and he caught the eye when runner-up over 5f at Doncaster last time. Given the pace seems to be on the stands' side, he should get a good tow into the race and I'm hopeful he can deliver. To hedge my bets, Popmaster is of interest from stall three.

Saffie Osborne, jockey I might be biased because I'm riding him, but Great Ambassador has a cracking chance. He ran a brilliant race in it last year and was second in the Ayr Gold Cup off 106, and with my 3lb claim he'll be running off 104 here. He was unlucky not to finish closer in a Group 3 last time and it seems like he's returning to form.

Alan Reilly, BoyleSports I would nominate two. We have seen sustained support for Whenthedealinsdone. Opening at 25-1, he now looks likely to go off favourite. He could be on an attractive mark and looks as though he's been laid out for this. Mr Wagyu has been so consistent having won a premier handicap at the Curragh last time. The track should hold no fears having also won at Epsom on Derby day as well as the Stewards' consolation last year.
