Imperial Cult (10/3), Thursday (4/1), Daphne May (9/2), Savanna King (11/2), Dotties Star (13/2), Mrembo (9/1), Eljaytee (14/1), Lawn Ranger (20/1), Mildyjama (28/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to IMPERIAL CULT, who was narrowly denied in his hat-trick bid over C&D last month following back-to-back wins on the all-weather at Lingfield. He wasn't disgraced in a pretty competitive Goodwood handicap recently (probably wasn't ideally suited by going right-handed) and remains on a workable mark. Mrembo does most of her racing on quicker ground but she will be a threat if coping with conditions, while Thursday is third choice ahead of Daphne May.
