Verdict
Filament Of Gold is the only course winner in the line-up but efforts this year have left much to be desired. Lady Elysia has gone backwards since winning at Leicester in June but a case can probably made for Dylan Hogan’s mount Ocean Reach. Elisha Whittington has plenty of experience but can still claims 3lb and that could make all the difference for CAFE SYDNEY, who was already well treated on her win at Brighton around this time last year.
