In depth
Verdict
Wet Sail never threatened when fourth in a conditions race on the Turf at Lingfield and may prove better suited to faster ground. But EMELL (NAP) is at home on this surface and a repeat of his third in a Group 3 at Goodwood behind higher rated horses should see him come out best. Highland Colori was not disgraced attempting to win the Ayr Gold Cup for a second time last month but hasn't won since 2013 now while Magic City looks his yard's second choice behind the selection. Mobsta remains unexposed after a belated seasonal opener at Beverley last month but Justice Well has been disappointing so far this year and Morache Music has plenty to find on these terms.
