Racing Post verdict
Third-partyRichie's Rocket heads this competitive 20-runner Class 3 contest at Goodwood on a rating narrowly ahead of the chasing pack, and the combination of that edge over a sound eight-furlong trip on good ground gives him a reasonable claim. Exclusive Code poses the most immediate threat, with Zennor Storm and Law Court closely matched and capable of making the frame on their best form. With confidence modest in a wide-open field, however, the outcome may hinge on how the race unfolds across Goodwood's sweeping track. **Richie's Rocket** is our selection.
