Race preview
KHALOOSY was so impressive when winning the Britannia Stakes at Royal Ascot and although a shade disappointing in two starts subsequently, he remains a colt with great promise and might be worth sticking with. Soft ground is no bother to him and, having raced freely the last twice, dropping back a furlong could prove a shrewd move. Happy Power has been freshened up following wins at both Salisbury and Goodwood in August and he won't give up on the hat-trick without a fight, while Daahyeh is worth a market check at least on her first outing in 11 months. Her form, which includes a close second behind Love, is rock solid.
