Verdict

Sinjaari won the John Smith’s Cup over track and trip on his reappearance but will have to overcome an 8lb hike in the ratings. Maydanny was very impressive upped to this trip at Goodwood. He beat stablemate Sky Defender by five lengths but did get the run of the race. Several of those in behind were less fortunate especially fourth DEREVO, who had to use up plenty of energy to overcome a wide draw and enjoys an 11lb turnaround in the weights with the winner. Cape Cavalli was another who had no luck in-running at Goodwood but Glasses Up is an Ayr specialist and Mountain Hunter may be better over 1m4f.
