Fri 18th Sep

Formscan  - SPY CHIEF was well fancied for the Wokingham at Royal Ascot, but ran no sort of race. However the four-year-old, who had gone close against subsequent two-time Group 1 winner Almeraq at Salisbury the time before, has been given sufficient time to recover and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he bounced back. Catullus ran with credit when pacemaking for Talk Of New York at Goodwood and reverting to 7f should be in his favour. The consistent Elarak is entitled to benefit from the return to 7f too.
