Sky Harbor looks to be coming back to his best and can land this prize at the expense of Incise and King Egbert. Andrew Balding's gelding has steadily dropped down the handicap and finished a close up fifth behind Jimmy Ryan in a better race than this at Goodwood last time, showing that his time wasn't far away. Incise was less than a length behind the selection at Goodwood and on two pounds better terms must have a chance of reversing the form. King Egbert ran his best race for some time when finishing a close up fourth behind Mirasol Princess here last time. The form has already taken a few knocks, but nevertheless the stable is in good form and there may be more improvement to come from this three-year-old. After The Show could prove best of the others, but in a tricky contest Skyharbor is just given the nod.
