Verdict
Moody Tunes should be thereabouts again despite a 6lb rise for winning one of these events at Goodwood last time but Rub Of The Relic is harder to fancy carrying a penalty for his recent Wolverhampton success where he had Overrule behind. ENTRANCE has just the one previous win to her name but is back on a winning mark and gets the nod having finished runner-up at Brighton on her latest start. Graceful Act can also be given a chance along with Gold Rules, who will be scoring off his current mark sooner rather than later.
