Ascot Race 4 - Long Harbour Hcp
GOLDEN KNIGHT (3) has his sights lowered here. Not disgraced when twelfth in the King George V Handicap (2400m) at Royal Ascot. This intermediate trip looks worth a crack and may return to winning form. MORBEH (5) is most progressive adding victories to the tally last twice at Windsor (2300m) and Chester (2100m). Should continue the upward trajectory. GATEHOUSE (4) missed by a neck when second as favourite last time over 2000m. Handicapper involved for that but still makes appeal. SEAGOLAZO (1) lost out latest by the same margin. Certainly in the mix however is continuing a long winless sequence.

Third-up today. Resuming 6th of 8 at Sandown Park in the LR The Heron Stakes on May 28 over 1600m, 12 len behind Talk Of New York carrying 58kg at $29. Second run from a spell 12th of 19 at this track KING GEORGE V STAKES on June 18 over 2400m, 8 len behind Enceladus with 55.5kg at $15. Hard to fault if at his best.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 37 day let-up. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Nottingham on June 3 over 2000m, neck behind Barbury Boy with 61.5kg at $2.90. The run before that ran second last in a small field at Newmarket (Rowley) on May 3 over 2000m, 8 len behind Evanesco with 55kg at $17. Shapes up nicely.
