WISE APPROACH (4.10 Newbury, nap)
Was the only colt to get anywhere near potential superstar Charles Darwin in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot last time out. The winner was putting in the juvenile performance of the season so this son of Mehmas did well to finish just over two lengths behind for Charlie Appleby. He stayed on really strongly under William Buick over five furlongs so this move up in distance should bring more improvement. He's a cut above anything else in the field for this Listed Bowl Stakes, with improver Amorim looking likely for the forecast spot.
CAMTANK (4.00 Nottingham, nb)
This daughter of Camelot left her debut form firmly behind when winning by a cosy two lengths at Lingfield last time. She didn't have to hit top gear and has a lot more to come for William Haggas.
BANANA (5.05 Nottingham, treble)
She makes plenty of appeal again after her barnstorming win over this trip at Chepstow seven days ago. She looked beaten inside the final furlong only to rally just in time for the line. This is a slight drop in class from that contest and there's another win in her.
COUP DE FORCE (7.00 Newmarket, Lucky 15)
She took a little time to get going at Salisbury last time but showed good pace once at top speed to win going away. A 4lb rise for that looks fair and she's right in the hunt again.

Ambulance on track after legendary horse Trueshan suffers injury in Goodwood Cup
He was quickly pulled up PRAY FOR GOOD NEWS Ambulance on track after legendary horse Trueshan suffers injury in Goodwood Cup Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN AMBULANCE is on the track at Goodwood after legendary horse Trueshan suffered an injury. The iconic stayer was vying for the lead when he looked to injure his leg under jockey Hollie Doyle. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Trueshan, a millionaire horse and multiple Group 1 winner loved by punters and jockey Hollie Doyle, looked to suffer a serious injury in the Goodwood Cup Credit: Alamy ITV Racing host Ed Chamberlin: "I just feel so sad about Trueshan. I hope he's OK." It didn't look good, however. Doyle tried to pull up the Alan King-trained nine-year-old as quickly as she could when she realised something had gone wrong. Trueshan, who has won more than £2million during the course of his career, was sent off 22-1 for the day one feature. He was typically keen and lit up in the early stages but Doyle, who won the Lennox earlier on the card, looked to be winning the battle to restrain him. But it was as he challenged leader Illinois that Trueshan, who has finished first, third and fourth in three Goodwood Cup runs, appeared to hurt his leg. More to follow.

Ryan team expect Goodwood to suit Molecomb runner Ameeq
The Mehmas colt ran a stormer in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot to come home fourth as a 100-1 shot and should find conditions on the Sussex Downs more to his liking. 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 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.
