Norfolk Stakes winner Masta Plasta disappointed at Goodwood last time and may do so again under his penalty today so preference is for Richard Hannon's Godfrey Street, who is preferred to stablemates Gramm, Hot and Sonny Santino. Richard Hannon is always to be feared in these races and the selection looks a likely type on what is only his second start over six furlongs, having been run out of it close home on a softer surface on his only previous start with cut in the ground. Gramm and Envision are two lightly raced colts from the Hannon stable that are open to improvement and have to be considered along with more exposed stable companions Hot and Sonny Santino. Away from the Hannon horses, Pickett comes from a yard that has done well with their juveniles of late and has shown progressive form of late, while Pacific Pride is probably better than he showed in the Gimcrack last time. The Snatcher, another Hannon representative and the mount of Richard Hughes, drops back to six furlongs having failed to stay seven last time and has to be considered but Godfrey Street has more solid claims on form and he gets the vote.
