Goodwood
Sat 1st Aug

Formscan  - AL AASY has won the last two renewals of this race and is expected to take a bit of beating following a confidence-boosting success at Beverley. His reappearance effort in the John Porter at Newbury was also an encouraging effort and suggests the nine-year-old retains plenty of enthusiasm for the game. Ghostwriter is expected to improve on his Wolferton effort at Royal Ascot and should go well, likewise the selection's stable companion Opportunity, who defied all the stats and trends to win the Duke Of Edinburgh from stall one.
