Verdict

Iconic Belle’s winning run might come to an end here at the hands of TRICORN, who is also in peak form and receives 2lb even though he carries a penalty for another very impressive victory at Ayr last week. Arrow Of Gold had only two runs last year and has been gelded since. He is worth monitoring regardless of how he fares today. Viaduct has been stepped up in trip this year and has been quite consistent but Dulcima remains out of sorts.
