Verdict

GOLD STAR HERO is compiling an excellent record on the all-weather and can make light of a 5 lb penalty and complete a hat-trick. Last month's C&D scorer Counsel is the obvious threat, although it also wouldn't be surprise were Havana Blast to take a good step forward from his recent comeback outing.
