Verdict
Tyfos and Poyle Vinnie beat the same horse when recording their respective wins at Leicester - the former comes out best of that pair on collateral form. Dawn Catcher finished ahead of Rylee Mooch on the Turf course at Lingfield last week and carries 6lb extra but it was no surprise to see Beach Rhythm struggle at Goodwood having been raised 10lb for an earlier win at Bath. TYCHAIOS is upped a grade after scoring at Brighton but an apprentice's allowance negates most of a 7lb hike. Stuart Williams' charge gets the vote in the opener on that basis.
