Verdict

An interesting race with both Aktau (fourth) and Nette Rousse (sixth) probably capable of getting closer to their Nottingham conqueror Pondus on revised terms (and under different ground conditions), while Maiden Castle should also be winning races fairly imminently on the basis of what we've seen on the racecourse to date. However, the John Gosden-trained GOLD STICK, who carries the colours of Her Majesty The Queen, is progressing nicely with experience and looks to be more than capable of following up a silky smooth 1m2f Wetherby win. Of the newcomers, the €300,000 Frankel colt Indignation is the most noteworthy.
  1. Gold Stick
  2. Pondus
  3. Aktau
