Verdict

The draw shouldn’t come into play too much in this relatively small field but this is Goodwood. Mark Johnston will do well to maintain his superb recent record in this race via Homespin whose recent effort leaves him plenty to find. COLD FRONT deserved his easy win last time having bumped into some smart sorts before and although he’s in fairly deep for his handicap debut this mark doesn’t look beyond him for a yard who are in flying form. Society Lion (tricky draw) is a major danger on Doncaster second that is working out well as is Master Snowden, undone by a big move into contention last time at Yarmouth. King Ragnar is another who can’t be ignored after his good start to 2020.
