A very busy Friday with Glorious Goodwood taking centre stage. Here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.
Goodwood

Kyle Of Lochalsh has shown some really progressive handicap form this season and looks set for another big run today. He won by 6 1/2 lengths back in May at Salisbury and then ran a fine race to finish 3rd of 20 at Royal Ascot over 2m4f distance. He was given a strange ride last time out at Newbury where he ran on well to finish 3rd of 10 over 2m. Now back up in distance again and reunited with the jockey who won on him in May he looks certain to go well. Kyle Of Lochalsh seems to handle most ground conditions and should handle today's track well. Kyle Of Lochalsh rates a 4 star each way Pick.

Urban Sprawl showed some smart handicap form last season including when a very good 3rd in the Britannia Handicap at Royal Ascot and although his form has been a little in and out since he could well be on a good handicap mark today. He was given a gelding operation in the Spring and looked like he badly needed the run a couple of weeks ago at Newmarket where he finished 9th of 9. With that run under his belt and the plum draw in stall 1 today he might be able to bounce out and make all the running. He has winning form at this track and could well be underestimated. Urban Sprawl rates a 4 star each way Pick.
