Ryan team expect Goodwood to suit Molecomb runner Ameeq
Previous to that, he broke his maiden at Nottingham in fine style when beating Chairmanfourtimes, who has since franked that form with a victory of his own at Pontefract.
Ryan, who is assistant to his father, Kevin, said: 'It was a fantastic race at Ascot.
'Probably a little bit unlucky with being drawn slightly on the wrong side. Obviously the winner (Charles Darwin) was very good.
'He did himself very proud there. He's got a lot of natural speed so Goodwood should suit him.
'We don't run horses at Ascot thinking they haven't got a chance. The horse doesn't know his odds and we thought he'd do himself proud and he did just that.'
Ryan will be double-handed with Dickensian trying his luck at Group level for the first time.
The son of Pinatubo found only Havana Hurricane too good in the Windsor Castle at the Royal meeting and heading to Goodwood was always the plan.
Ryan added: 'He's come out of Ascot well. He was a good second there, just getting caught late on, so the Molecomb was tagged up straight away to head to and he goes down there with a big chance.'
Charlie Appleby's Military Code won his first two starts before disappointing in the Coventry Stakes. He bounced back to form at Sandown recently when beaten just a head by Staya.
'Military Code put up a good performance at Sandown, with the winner going on to run well at Ascot over the weekend. We highlighted this race straight after his last run and he goes there in good order,' Appleby told www.godolphin.com.
Ger Lyons sends Group Three scorer Lady Iman from Ireland after she lost her unbeaten record last time out in the Airlie Stud Stakes at the Curragh when racing too keenly.
Tim Easterby is represented by three-time winner Argentine Tango, who has some fine form behind Karl Burke's star filly Venetian Sun.
'The ground is good which suits her, but she's drawn in stall one which is not ideal, but what can you do. She should run well,' said Easterby.
'She's been training very well into the race and we were very happy with her Newmarket performance behind Venetian Sun. She's got seven others to beat though, but she's going into it as well as she could be.'
David O'Meara runs Rogue Supremacy with Andrew Balding's Sands Of Spain and David Simcock's Rydale Frosty completing the line-up.

Nunthorpe challenge still in the mix for Lady Iman
It is often said that one man's misfortune is another man's gain and after bringing the hammer down for £185,000 at the sales before being returned to her breeders following a failed post-sale veterinary examination, few would have blamed the O'Callaghans of Tally-Ho Stud fame for feeling despondent. However, sent into training with Ger Lyons, Lady Iman has proven a standard-bearer in more ways than one, both excelling on the track in the O'Callaghan silks and becoming the perfect advertisement for Tally-Ho's freshman sire Starman in the process. LADY IMAN 😍 Group Three honours in the Molecomb Stakes for the Ger Lyons-trained filly under Ryan Moore 🥇 @Goodwood_Races @HKJC_Racing | @WorldPool — Racing TV (@RacingTV) July 30, 2025 After three straight victories Lady Iman and her striking white face met a bump in the road at the Curragh in the Airlie Stud Stakes, but was soon back showcasing the speed that has been a hallmark of her career to date to leave the opposition trailing with a dazzling display in the Molecomb Stakes. 'It was great to see her win again and we're living the dream and we'll see where she takes us,' said Roger O'Callaghan, son of Tony and Anne O'Callaghan. 'She's been awesome since we couldn't sell her. Before Christmas she was showing plenty and looked a bit different. She's always shown loads and her temperament is second to none. She is why Starman looks to be a good stallion, as she has got his speed and his temperament. 'We're all enjoying it and hopefully we're not finished yet.' It was not just the speed shown by Lady Iman on the racecourse the O'Callaghans enjoyed at Goodwood, as unlike their star performer, they were asked to take the foot off their gas when getting to experience horse power of a different kind and invited to try out the South Downs' famous motor circuit. And having enjoyed the hospitality provided during Lady Iman's first raid to Britain, the owners are now left to ponder the next steps of the thriving juvenile's career. With a ticket to the $1million Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint ready to be cashed in later in the year courtesy of her Molecomb triumph, the chance to become the first two-year-old Nunthorpe winner since Kingsgate Native in 2007 is getting connections thinking after she was made the general 4-1 favourite for a daring raid on the Knavesmire's sprint feature. 'Personally I would like to go for the Nunthorpe,' continued O'Callaghan. 'She was cantering all over the back of them at the two and I ended up getting there too early' Nunthorpe next for LADY IMAN following her easy win in the G3 Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood #Starman — Tally-Ho Stud (@HoStud) July 30, 2025 'Dad and myself own the filly together and dad might prefer the filly to stick to her own age group, but if she's fit and well, I would like to take on the elders, you have to live the dream and live for the moment. 'We'll worry about it when the time comes, there's a few weeks yet and we would have to write a bit of a cheque (to supplement), so we'll see. 'The trainer is very keen on the Breeders' Cup and Goodwood was a 'win and you're in'. We'll take it one day at a time, but I would like to go to York next.'
