This looks wide-open though this year's evidence suggests Smarty Socks is not the force of old. Victoire De Lyphar's winning run came to an end at Newmarket last time and he may be back in the handicapper's grip while Almargo has gone off the boil but it would be no surprise to see My Freedom run well after a break given he won over 1m at this meeting last year. FOXTROT ROMEO may have been a shade unlucky when second to Alejandro at York earlier this month. He's 3lb higher here but is still fancied to go one better, though Farlow is running really well this year and looks a danger on his latest fifth at Epsom. Goodwood scorer Clockmaker and Cosmic Chatter make most appeal of the remainder as Apostle is hard to predict and Prince's Trust has a long absence to overcome.
