        Verdict

        Prince of Gold, Haroldini, Granakey and Crusoe are a handful against the field in a wide open finale and the narrow vote is given to Prince Of Gold. The selection was a fair third behind Bodden Bay last time out, that form has since been franked and from a good draw he looks the one to be on. Haroldini rates the main danger as he won well last time when beating Kethaab buut this looks tougher and he looks vulnerable under top weight. Granakey is another that could go well as he also won last time out but his best efforts have come over a shorter trip and he is taken on with this in mind. Crusoe has dropped to a handy mark but he has two ways of running so cxan not be put forward wirth any confidence. Of the remainder Halfwaytoparadise has the ability to go close but does not like to use it and for the winner we return to Prince Of Gold.
