The trickiest puzzle on the card with Goodwood Crusader and talented apprentice Finley Marsh chasing a five-timer and Meshardal looking to make it four on the bounce under another quality claimer. Diamond Lady is another last-time victor worthy of consideration and Spanish City, making his seasonal reappearance, must surely have more to offer after just half a dozen starts. Fang and Cold Snap launch a double assault for William Jarvis but SUMMER CHORUS is a tentative choice to defy her burden. She will be held up for her usual late burst and won some decent prizes last year.
