Verdict

GOLDEN SPEECH appears very difficult to get away from and the fact that Godolphin have retained his services as a gelded three-year-old suggests they believe he can build upon his earlier efforts on Turf. Majestic Warrior wasn’t missed by the market when dotting up at Wolverhampton on Wednesday and he’ll be a threat if turning up to this assignment despite that additional penalty. Marcolini wasn't knocked about on debut at Newmarket while Bronze Green is closely related to winners over further so connections will be keen to get this first outing under his belt.
