Race Preview

Mia Fantasia looks the one to beat on nursery debut after producing an excellent effort when runner-up at Ascot behind Dr Rascal, who has since advertised the form by winning the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood. Hugo Palmer's colt won well on debut at Carlisle despite a slow start and shaped like a horse with plenty more to offer. The step into handicap company looks an ideal opportunity, while Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching booking.

The Bookkeeper has the profile of a horse laid out for this race. Richard Hughes has an excellent record targeting winners at Glorious Goodwood, and his colt shaped with considerable promise when finishing fourth in the Woodcote after winning over this trip at Haydock. Ryan Moore takes the ride and a return to 7f should play to his strengths.

Wise And Wonderful appeals as the value runner. Andrew Balding won this race last year and his filly has improved with each outing, making all to score at Epsom before entering handicaps from what could prove a lenient mark. She'll need to overcome a wide draw but has the scope to take another step forward.

Shadow King deserves respect after a successful nursery debut at Doncaster, although carrying a penalty in a much stronger race makes life tougher. Cilician has been remarkably consistent and first-time cheekpieces could eke out further improvement, while Everatease is unbeaten since stepping up to 6f and remains another progressive contender despite a difficult draw.

Value Angle

Wise And Wonderful looks attractively treated on her handicap debut. She has improved with every start and could easily outrun her current rating if coping with the draw.
