Wicklow makes most appeal of those with experience on his debut fourth at Goodwood and is preferred to Night Of Hope. But a couple of Dubawi newcomers take the eye. Thunder Drum is a full-sister to a couple of winners and a half-sister to others but ROYAL TOUCH is a half-brother to no-less than seven winners including Group 1 winner Farhh and the Godolphin colt may prove the one to side with. Irish Legend cost €240,000 as a foal and is preferred to Moneykenny and Eminent Hipster of the others.
