14/9

All bar one placed yesterday - importantly, Servoca, my selection ,placed

305 GOODWOOD
BETTING FORECAST: Evs Lough Diver, 4/1 Harlestone Gold, 8/1 Dinarius, Drum Major, Shayera, 12/1 Kijivu, 33/1 Capeleira.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: LOUGH DIVER was one of three to pull well clear at Newmarket last month, when tackling this sort of ground for the first time, and is clearly the one to beat

Soft ground and only 2 to place in this maiden. Proven on the ground which is a positive

435 GREAT LEIGHS
BETTING FORECAST: 13/8 Askar Tau, 4/1 Desert Sea, Greenwich Meantime, 7/1 Always Bold, Casual Affair, 14/1 Rationale, 33/1 Absolut Power.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: Askar Tau is the obvious choice, but another steep rise in the weights makes things that bit harder and it may be worth siding with DESERT SEA whose reappearance win is still fresh in the memory and who has an enviable AW record

Won his last 4 and strong at 11/10 but that winning streak will end and they normally end spectacularly.

Chance on Lough Diver to place here although I don't normally like playing place only in 7 runner fields as strictly we have to get it spot on! 1.91 win and 1.3 place - no bet if grounds gets heavier throughout the day
