GEOFF Wragg has been out of luck in the Derby since striking with Teenoso 17 years ago - his first season with a licence - but Asian Heights can have him dreaming of further Epsom glory by booking his ticket tomorrow.

The Newmarket trainer, who took over from his late father in 1983, has not had a horse in the frame since Most Welcome chased home Reference Point in 1987.

Now Asian Heights puts his Vodafone Derby credentials on the line in theCompass UK Leisure Predominate Stakes at Goodwood.

The colt was put in the Epsom Classic at the second entry stage at a cost of £8,000 last month and shortly afterwards showed that it was not money wasted as he was three-quarters of a length second to Chancellor in the Sandown Classic Trial on his reappearance.

The ground that day was atrocious, forcing the rest of the Flat races on the card to be abandoned.

It was only the second run of Asian Heights's life and his performance was a big step up on his debut win in a Lingfield maiden the previous October and showed that he had made great strides over the winter.

Should he take this £35,000 Listed event tomorrow, then his Derby odds of 40-1 with Ladbrokes will be slashed.

The richest race as Goodwood's three-day fixture gets under way is the £50,000 Tote Trifecta Stakes.

This Showcase Handicap can fall to Dance On The Top.

Ed Dunlop's colt showed tremendous battling qualities to land a 28-runner Newmarket handicap over the straight Rowley Mile on Sagitta 1000 Guineas day by a head from Gilded Dancer.

This totally different track should not pose a problem as he was half a length runner-up to Forever My Lord in a seven-furlong nursery here last August.

Calcutta has not got his head in front since September 1998 when he captured a valuable handicap at Doncaster.

However, the Barry Hills-trained five-year-old showed signs of returning to his best when a close fourth of 21 to Welcome Friend at Newmarket in April.

His turns looks to have arrived at last in the Newton Investment Management Handicap.

Kier Park has taken time to come to hand after missing most of last season through injury.

But after two runs, Michael Jarvis' smart sprinter will be ready to do himself justice in the M-real Conditions Stakes.

The four-year-old was an encouraging eighth of 18 to Rushcutter Bay in the Group Three Palace House Stakes at Newmarket earlier this month - a race in which he was second to Pipalong 12 months ago.

Both of Jo Mell's victories last term came at Beverley and Tim Easterby's popular eight-year-old can come up trumps again at the East Yorkshire course in the Phone Your Bet To Habbershaws 01482 442141 Rated Stakes.

Jo Mell, who took the corresponding race last year, cut out most of the running when unplaced behind Soviet Flash in a hot handicap at York last Wednesday.

At Bath, Royal Measure can follow up his success at Nottingham three weeks ago in the Manny Bernstein Freephone 0800 821821 Handicap.
