DELANNOY only won a seller at Goodwood last time but he did so by six lengths and this isn’t much tougher. Broughtons Admiral has been thereabouts of late and can figure once again but Ablaze remains 9lb higher than scoring at Lingfield in July. Grey Diamond and Send Up have yet to figure but the latter steps up in distance for her handicap debut and is worth a second glance in the betting given she looks just the type Sir Mark Prescott’s yard does so well with.
