Race preview
Goguenard improved for the step up in distance when landing a third victory of the season at Stratford last month. The eight-year-old should have more to come over this distance and he isn't taken lightly racing off a 6lb higher rating. However, COLONEL WHIZZ makes slightly more appeal having stayed on well to finish third over an inadequate extended 2m3f at Huntingdon in March and Olly Murphy's charge should appreciate this greater emphasis on stamina. Breizh Alko also has claims off a career-low mark.
