GOLD TANTRUM came with what looked like a winning run over the track and trip a fortnight ago but was edged out close home by Hoppsan. He's been raised 2lb but that should have brought him to concert pitch and compensation awaits. Lord Kenmare wasn't far behind and can get involved but the fancied Our Manekineko was disappointing. Whitethorne Scent has yet to win but came very close a month ago when unlucky in-running behind Rose Angel. To add insult to injury she's been raised 6lb but should still get into the action.
