Verdict

GREY FABLE has made a near-perfect start for the Karl Thornton yard and he can bring up a C&D hat-trick at the chief expense of Ithaca's Arrow, who looked as good as ever returned to this code at Goodwood last time. Sea Grey hasn't been seen to best effect on either outing since winning here and still can't be written off.

  1. GREY FABLE (IRE)
  2. ITHACA'S ARROW
  3. SEA GREY
