Verdict
Not many are ruled out but Royal Amnesty and WIND SHUFFLE both have solid claims with Jim Goldie's runner preferred. It's possible that he's a shade high in the weights but he runs this course and distance particularly well and it certainly suits him better than Musselburgh where he finished just behind Royal Amnesty and in front of Casino Night. Royal Amnesty is closely matched with him and has also won over course and distance; as with the selection, the handicapper knows exactly where he is with him but he remains competitive in these affairs. Prince Evelith posted a decent effort on his reappearance but this trip has appeared to stretch him in the past whilst Castlebury looks tripless. Arctic Cape is arguably the most talented horse in the line-up but he has been frustrating and expensive to follow. He may well win but we prefer to take our chances with Wind Shuffle.
