Verdict
Major Gatsby won off a 5lb higher mark here in June of last year but that’s because he hasn’t scored since. Turquoise Diamond was slowly away when a couple of lengths behind MOONDIAL at Epsom and is 2lb better off but the Kublers’ in-form filly is still fancied to confirm the form. Run Cmc was having a first run for a new yard at Goodwood and may do better here.
