Verdict

Trooper's Gold is rated 77 with a second at Doncaster in July his best effort so far. He steps up in trip and has the beating on these terms of Doctor Cross, Dream On Dreamer and Lingfield runner-up Matthioli. But KURAKA made a promising start when second at Carlisle and Karl Burke’s colt should go close with normal progress. Glorvina looks another likely improver while the newcomer Tamayef is a half-brother to multiple winner Spirit Of Zeb and is one to keep an eye on.
