THE GOLDEN CUE has been allotted an opening mark of just 62 here and that pay prove to be underestimating his ability. He's gone well in some novice events already and handles cut in the ground, from a nice berth in stall two, he should have things in his favour to lay down a challenge. Milton Road is not passed over easily give the brilliant recent form he's shown and, with De Sousa back on board, he looks sure to run another big race. Gold Filigree can have a say dropped in trip while Spoof will present much more of a threat if learning to settle in his races.
