Several in with claims in this tricky handicap with course and distance winners aplenty, however Cosmic Destiny looks on a decent mark and can win today at the main expense of Thoughtsofstardom, Dysonic and One Way Ticket. The selection was a fair fourth last time out at Goodwood and whilst he has only recorded two victories in 38 starts, he has a good draw today, has run well over course and distance before and looks likely to give punters a real run for their money. Dysonic's only victories came in classified races but he is consistent and has place claims once again, as does City For Conquest although he doesn't have the best of draws. Davids Mark and Kitchen Sink are two more for consideration; the last-named should appreciate the drop back to this trip. An open contest, and Cosmic Destiny gets the most tentative of votes.
