Verdict

Prince Of Gold showed enough as a juvenile to suggest he can win a small race, but he would have more of a chance in a handicap. Cantoris runs here in preference to two other entries later on this week and this Unfuwain colt is one to keep an eye on, as is Macaroni Gold, who is out of a Rheingold mare. However, the newcomers face a tough task against Gala Sunday, who will be well suited by this stiff 10-furlongs. He is from a yard that has made a good start to the season with its maidens and can take this en-route to better things.
