Robbie Wilders' play of the day at Goodwood

Angle Land

2.20 Goodwood

A maximum of seven will line up for the 5f handicap, but it's a tricky heat and one that could see a real pace burn-up.

Notorious speedball Night On Earth has only one way of going. Alligator Alley made all to win at Thirsk last month. Almaty Star is another who loves to lead.

These front-runners are drawn in stalls one, four and seven, so there is pace across the track and this could tee up nicely for Angle Land (stall five).

Angle Land needs a strong pace to run at and has only opened up at such a big price due to her last two runs being disappointing ones.

However, there was more promise than the finishing position suggested in her latest start here as she was travelling as well as any of her rivals at the furlong pole before failing to find anything off the bridle.

Losing a shoe wouldn't have helped her cause and perhaps the ground was softer than she wants nowadays. 

Prior course-and-distance form figures of 22123 are evidence she likes it at Goodwood and four of those five efforts came off higher marks.

Returned to a quicker surface and with Rossa Ryan taking over in the saddle, Angle Land deserves another chance.
