Whistler Bowl failed to land the odds at Goodwood last time so COCHISE gets another chance. The latter will need to improve on his effort over today’s trip at Chepstow but first-time headgear may help in that regard and he is having only his second start in a handicap. Waterfall is another with plenty of scope and is upped in distance along with Lingfield third Ignatius while Nordano has been gelded since finishing a modest sixth over 2m at Catterick in June and may finish closer.
