The veteran Wildomar has something to prove over this far having won over 1m5f back in February while Celtic Classic was well beaten over track and trip back in June. Selsey Sizzler placed over 2m at Wolverhampton recently but it could pay to stick with BEAT THE HEAT. The latter placed over today’s trip at Goodwood before landing a double over 1m6f and beating Go Bob Go and Anisoptera in the process. Aleatoric posted a better effort last time and looks best of the rest.
