A busy Friday with Day 2 of Ayr's Gold Cup meeting taking centre stage. Here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.

Eternal Sunshine is in sparkling form right now and 5 wins and 2 2nd's from his last 7 starts show just how progressive he has been. He won off a mark of 50 at Thirsk in June and his most recent win was yesterday off a mark of 69. The fact that he is often held up off the pace and comes through with a late charge means the winning distances of his wins have been relatively small thus not allowing the handicapper to fully catch up with him yet. He was strong at the finish again yesterday and a return to 6f on a track he clearly loves if going to suit. Eternal Sunshine rates a 4 star each way Pick.
