Verdict
Prevailing conditions will make this a real test of stamina for these three-year-olds and penalised runaway Brighton winner Goshen also a big weight to contend with. Twenty Years On beat Hummdinger by a length over 1m4f at Salisbury but is 2lb worse off, though should again beat Spring Run. LUCK OF CLOVER has been crying out for step up in trip and, though beaten twice off this mark, can open his account today if handling the going. Spargrove should stay and is preferred to Craneur of the others.
