Verdict

From a stable that's firing in winners from all angles, Battered must go on the short-list but has been no favours with an outside draw. Glorious Artist is getting closer and has similar claims while Abiento has contested tough maidens at Goodwood and York in his last two, though over an extra furlong. Nobody rides this course better than Franny Norton and he'll give KIRIBATI every chance of a first success after placed efforts at Bath and Hamilton. Aventinus never figured in a Goodwood nursery last time but has ability and should be winning soon.
