Verdict

A competitive finale but Golden Town isn’t getting any younger, though is on a decent mark nowadays and is one of five course and distance winners in the line-up. Glimpse Of Gold is also in the veteran stage now and a return to a quicker surface will suit LORD CAPRIO, who has placed here the last twice on softer ground. Bertie's Wish and Legendary Day could both get involved having a first run in a handicap over hurdles with the latter in good form on the all-weather recently. The four-year-old Start In Front and They Call Me Pete add to the interest.
