Verdict

GOLDEN PAL failed to fire when only seventh in last season's Nunthorpe at York but Wesley Ward's US colt is unbeaten since and well worth another chance to prove himself a top sprinter on these shores. Australian-challenger Nature Strip has the form to play a leading role too and could prove his biggest threat, with Twilight Calls and Man of Promise appealing as the pick of the home challenge.

  1. GOLDEN PAL (USA)
  2. NATURE STRIP (AUS)
  3. TWILIGHT CALLS
