By Templegate
- NAP 5.00 Goodwood - Hard Toffee: '1lb lower than when winning this race last year, back to form last time'
- NEXT BEST 3.50 Goodwood - Aurora Gray: 'Second in competitive Glorious Goodwood handicap last time and big chance over slightly shorter'
- TREBLE 4.45 Hamilton - Guishan: 'In great form and 3lb rise for last win may not stop her'
"When he came back from Goodwood, I thought a little break would do him good. I put him on the treadmill for eight days, but he kept telling me he wanted to get back racing again.
"He's a horse, who never blows (after races). I've never trained one like him.

"I thought he probably had a hard race at Goodwood, but he's come out of the Sussex so well physically. The ground won't be a problem -- It is currently soft, and it could get softer.
"But, also, he's broken a track record, so he is at home on ground that is quick, too."
