Epsom NAP - 14:50 - Back Golden West
Golden West made the perfect start to his career at Newcastle in August and is fancied to follow up in what is likely to prove an informative conditions race. Bought for 90,000 guineas as a yearling, he looked a useful prosect at Gosforth Park as he came two and a quarter lengths clear of Galactic Charm despite looking to be learning on the job. He'll relish the extra half furlong here, too.
Epsom Next Best - 15:25 - Back Forceful Speed
Forceful Speed is a progressive three-year-old on a roll and looks a solid bet to complete the hat-trick. In good hands, George Boughey's charge has progressed with each run this season, winning Class 4 handicaps at Pontefract and Redcar on his last two starts. He's up 3 lb another today but remains one to be interested in, with further progress on the cards now stepping up to a mile and a half.
Epsom Each-Way - 17:10 - Back Overnight Oats
Overnight Oats finished just behind Shot of Love over this course and distance last month, but he is 2 lb better off for that half-length defeat and is narrowly fancied to turn the tables. Shot of Love made full use of an uncontested lead on that occasion and faces more pressure for the lead on Sunday. In a wide-open heat, Overnight Oats is perhaps the most solid option this time having finished out of the first three just once in his last six starts.
