Verdict

Small field affairs can often generate a muddling pace, and that so often proves detrimental to those with clear and proven stamina reserves. However, HUMBLE HERO undoubtedly brings the best single piece of form into this contest (1m6f Goodwood Class 2 fourth), and looks the standout race by race improver in the line up. With Amlad and Voski generally happy to race to the fore, a messy race looks less of a concern than it might have been in other circumstances, and despite having to contend with proven C&D performer New Society, the Haggas/Cosgrave three-year-old looks by far the most likely winner.
