Chetan completed a mid-summer hat-trick over 6f in minor handicaps and made a bold bid to complete a four-timer over that trip at Epsom, though this is a higher grade contest. Consulting, a Kempton winner last month, couldn't quite contain Little Miss Kodi at Goodwood and has a 3lb rise to contend with. Intrude's three victories have come on the all-weather but RED TEA has been running well enough from this mark since completing a double over a mile in July to suggest that stepping down in trip can bring about the necessary improvement to gain her third career victory. Song Of Norway's two victories have come at a lower level but Feed The Goater has been going well enough to make the frame.
