Five Group 3 wins, including at Glorious Goodwood on latest start, and he's 3-5 at Newbury

Often front-runner; big form player; touch more to prove if the ground is firmer than good
5 (3)	Go Daddy Brown J:Lewis Edmunds T:William Muir & Chris Grassick	J:Lewis Edmunds T:William Muir & Chris Grassick	124	—	4-4632	100	110	91	21d	—	—	+5	15.6	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Progressive 3yo who will stay at least this far, but clear bottom of this list on ratings

Even if wind surgery has done the trick, she surely needs an absolute downpour

Plenty to prove, including as it's his first run over this short since 2021
