Verdict
Gold Arch has only won at Wolverhampton so far but was second off a 5lb lower mark over track and trip in June so can’t be ruled out. The headgear would need to work a second time on Doncaster runner-up Menin Gate while Euro Implosion is fairly consistent, though still a maiden. THEATRO (NAP) needs forgiving a poor run on Tapeta last time but had won well here previously on rain-softened ground and would be hard to beat if returning to that form. Neileta will have stamina to prove and also appears better on fast going.
