Marselan landed a double over 7f with last month’s success at Goodwood but earlier attempts at today’s trip fail to inspire confidence. GOODWOOD GLEN (NAP) is preferred as he scored over course and distance on his handicap debut and is taken to confirm running with third-placed Propagation. Visala returns to action and goes handicapping for the first time along with Limited Edition while better is expected from Sunset back over a mile having returned a beaten favourite over 7f last week.
