 who makes his debut over fences. Geraghty is full of confidence for Goshen's bow over fencesCredit: PA I am confident he'll take to the bigger obstacles like a duck to water, though the key to him is going right-handed. For a jockey it's very tricky if a horse jumps the other way because the more you try to correct them, the more they will try to resist it and therefore it gets progressively worse as the race goes on. It's not a character flaw or anything like that, it's just one of those things that some horses do and as a jockey you just have to do what you can. Goshen could be a very exciting novice chaser this season and this looks a good starting point to get his campaign underway. The big one at Ascot is the London Gold Cup and I wasn't surprised to see MAJOR DUNDEE (3.15) and OUR POWER fancied. Both horses have very similar profiles being seven-year-olds, with good place form in big handicaps and who look to have plenty of scope to improve this season.

I RECKON it will be bish, bash, Gosh at Ascot.
There some cracking contests this afternoon – and first up on my must-watch list is GOSHEN (1.30) who makes his debut over fences.
