Done well since blinkers were added; not shone at Goodwood in the past but still respected
9 (1)	Calafrio Grey J:Connor Planas(3) T:Philip Kirby	J:Connor Planas(3) T:Philip Kirby	125	—	452241	55	76	59	14d	—	—	+3	20.3	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Easy win in a classified event at Thirsk two weeks ago; should go well back in a handicap
5 (8)	Lahina Bay Bay J:Rhys Clutterbuck T:Rachel Cook & John Bridger	J:Rhys Clutterbuck T:Rachel Cook & John Bridger	134	—	742134	61	76	63	18d	—	—	+2	15	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Well suited by fast turf; comes here in decent order and she's likely to go well again

0-9 but the odd run that hints he's up to winning a similar race; interesting back at 6f

Struggling for form this year, most recently well held at Epsom last week; vulnerable
1 (2)	Symbol Of Hope Bay J:Taylor Fisher(3) T:John & Rhys Flint	J:Taylor Fisher(3) T:John & Rhys Flint	139	p	416421	66	75	47	21d	—	—	+12	22.6	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Well suited by up to 5.5f at a stiff track; in good form but this test perhaps not ideal
8 (9)	Papabella Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Stuart Kittow	J:Rob Hornby T:Stuart Kittow	130	—	42-051	57	75	59	24d	—	—	-4	4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Off the mark at the 10th attempt when landing a Ffos Las handicap last month; more needed
4 (3)	Unico Grey J:Kieran O'Neill T:Chris Gordon	J:Kieran O'Neill T:Chris Gordon	135	—	941767	65	73	40	31d	—	—	+3	8.1	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Yet to shine for new yard, including when behind Silent Flame at Newbury

Gained an overdue win at Bath last month; less good at Salisbury since; can bounce back
