Don't Panic took advantage of a drop in the weights when successful at Goodwood at the beginning of the month and is taken to defy the 3lb rise in the weights, getting the verdict ahead of Big Noise and Transcend. The last mentioned showed better form at Newmarket last time and has slipped to a decent mark now but John Gosden's colt has yet to prove as effective on fast ground so may be best watched. Rainbow Mirage ran better at Warwick last time but has yet to prove his effectiveness over seven furlongs, while Kyle could probably do with some help from the handicapper. Abunai deserves to get his head in front after three consistent efforts this term, although a bigger threat may come from Big Noise. Dr Jon Scargill's colt has been in good form of late and has to be respected but a better bet may be Don't Panic who is taken to win again.
