In-running (Kelly Burn (GB))

Held up eagerly in the pack - squeezed for space and knocked about 2f out - moved left to find room and pushed along inside the final 2f - responded well to fight back into contention entering the last furlong - battled to the line - got up by a whisker

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Ammoony

Ammoony heads this nine-runner Goodwood mile-and-a-half contest on good-to-firm ground, rated narrowly ahead of Kissmehoneyhoney, and the form suggests she is the one they all have to beat over this stamina-testing trip. Kissmehoneyhoney represents the most obvious threat at just two pounds off the top, and Liveinthelight and Glenna, both on 79, will need to be watched if the pace suits them. The confidence is medium rather than absolute, but Ammoony's rating advantage is backed by a profile that makes her well suited to these conditions, and she is the call here.
