        Verdict

        SEA OSCAR returned a losing favourite when floundering over a longer trip on the all-weather. The Haggas filly gets another chance back on Turf on her earlier debut effort at Goodwood. Alpha Cru and Sir John Bowdler return to action with a shout and the latter debuts for a new yard while Bluewater Lady is preferred to older stablemate Tele Red.
