Goodwood Race 2 - British Stallion Studs John Dunlop Ebf Conditions Stakes (Gbb Race)
NOBLE CHAMPION (5) steps markedly down in grade after finishing seventh attempting the G3 Greenham Stakes at Newbury. Can return to winning ways. HAWKSBILL (4) placed a close-up 0.75L second on seasonal return at Kempton last month. Holds form at G2 level. May go one better. SECRET THEORY (1) remains unbeaten in two starts. Last seen scoring by 1.75L at Nottingham 20 days ago. Represents notable connections. Respect. AL ARBEED (2) placed third at Newmarket (Rowley) previously. Place hope.

Puts an unbeaten record on the line. Resumed last start favourite; ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by 1.75 len at Nottingham April 12 over 1680m defeating Archivist with 61kg at $2.30. Can't knock that form so stick with him.

Unbeaten two for two. He is resuming after a eight months break. Not seen since winning by 1.75 len Kempton Park All Weather September 6 over 1600m defeating Green Storm carrying 61kg at $3.50. At his first start won by neck Kempton Park All Weather August 12 over 1400m defeating Zou's Your Daddy carrying 59.5kg at $2.10. Will need further improvement to maintain the impeccable record.

Second-up. First-up after six months 2nd in a small field at Kempton Park All Weather on March 29 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Glittering Legend carrying 58kg at $3.30. Previously second-up 2nd of 16 at Newbury on July 19 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Linwood with 59kg at $2.40. Looks hard to beat.

Third race start. Won on debut won by 2.25 len at Newmarket (Rowley) October 23 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Mudbir carrying 58kg at $4.30. Went for a break before returning 4th in a small field at Newmarket (Rowley) on April 17 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Pellitory with 61kg at $3.10. Looking elsewhere for the winner.
