John and Thady Gosden trains ROI DE FRANCE (26) who looked a touch unlucky not to make a successful handicap debut when second to an all-the-way winner at Yarmouth (1m1f). Could prove well-drawn in stall twenty six and off the same mark this Oisin Murphy mount is just preferred. Irish runner THIS SONGISFORYOU (6) won a valuable 1m2f handicap at the Curragh and is clearly expected to be competitive by connections under a 4lb penalty. GODWINSON (14) battled on well landing a 1m handicap at Goodwood and the William Haggas trained four-year-old cannot be ignored with an unexposed profile back up in trip. Recent course and distance winner LIBERTY LANE (1) may give a bold sight off top weight. BALMACARA (8) also warrants consideration.
