Verdict

Jim Goldie has a strong hand running the recent Hamilton winner Wickywickywheels, last week’s Ayr winner Grand Canal and also Graces Quest, who placed at the same Ayr fixture. Sulochana went close at Lingfield though both wins so far have come over 1m6f while Colinton is upped 5lb for winning at Haydock having earlier been beaten here by El Picador. EMARATY HERO has been thereabouts over longer trips recently though won over today’s distance at York last autumn and gets a speculative vote in an open contest.
