Handicappers’ nap
Strike Red (3.05 Goodwood)
Finished sixth in last year’s Stewards’ Cup and will appreciate the easier conditions for today’s big race. Best of those drawn high at York last time and is weighted to go well.

Eyecatcher
Reidh (5.35 Galway)
Has not had the clearest of runs on his last couple of starts and he is now 9lb lower than when winning under Oisin Orr over course and distance last year.

The Punt nap
Classy Al (7.30 Hamilton)
The Jim Goldie-trained seven-year-old is in terrific form and his 3lb rise for his last win is negated by Lauren Young’s 7lb claim for his hat-trick bid.

Consolidation (3.45 Goodwood)
No chance from his draw in the Britannia and better judged on his fast time win over course and distance in May.

Dark horse
Montpellier (3.45 Goodwood)
Useful form winning his novice under a penalty, shaped well on his handicap debut next time and will be suited by the step back up to 7f.
