Verdict
GOLDEN VOICE’s only defeat so far this year came when beaten a head over a mile at York. He’s gone up 5lb for a recent course and distance victory but can confirm that form with third Lethal Nymph and is also preferred to Galiac, even though the latter has only been raised 2lb for a second victory of the campaign at Newmarket. Hodler failed to confirm Goodwood running with Adjudicator here last time while this is a lot more competitive than the novice event that Cabinet Of Clowns won at Salisbury, though he is progressing.
