Verdict
Gold Medal won over track and trip on his first start for a new yard and can confirm running with both Lilkian and Swiss Pride. Bezzas Lad won over the minimum trip here last month but is 6lb higher while Bobby On The Beat won a couple of lower grade contests over track and trip over the winter. COOL LIGHTNING (NAP) has the most scope of the recent winners and she gets the vote to show further progress having made all at Wolverhampton last time with a couple of subsequent winners filling the places.
