Toughed it out well to maintain his unbeaten record in Gordon Stakes at Goodwood and extra distance promises to suit. Big shout.
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: HHHHH Selected to win the race.
HHHHI Good chance of being placed.
HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.
HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability.
The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).
The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

An ultra-competitive start to proceedings and it could pay to side with CATHEDRAL PEAK, who shaped well having had a hopeless task from her position at Gowran when last seen 5 months ago and she remains open to improvement starting out for a new yard amongst the winners. The consistent Warning Sign heads up the dangers also making his return, with Hartswood, Calanthe and Rising Force just a handful of others to consider, too.

PALMARIAN showed plenty of promise in an October Newmarket maiden that usually throws up a smart one and with improvement surely on the cards he could get off the mark here. Likewise Honved made a very bright start more recently at Wolverhampton and seems sure to progress. Meblesh, for a yard that has won 3 runnings of this in recent years, and Mum’s Angel, are appealing newcomers

This is wide open but it could pay to side with last year’s victor KNEBWORTH who shaped well on his recent return when fourth at Wolverhampton and hails from a yard among the winners Dark Thirty has a good record fresh and could emerge as the main danger off a lenient mark, although a solid case can be made for plenty of others, namely Fine Interview, Eye of Dubai, Bosh, Trilby and Archduke Ferdinand in this cracking sprint. 1-2-3:
