Verdict

Recent winning form is in short supply though Red Hat Eagle scored at Kempton last week and is only 2lb higher. Al Hargah scored at Newbury in August but GOLDSMITH has been in better form lately and, having completed a double here last winter, Alice Haynes’ charge gets the vote dropping back down in class.
