Verdict

Even by his lofty standards, Charlie Appleby is in scintillating form and GOLDSPUR, who already has placed form at the highest level to his name, appeals as very much being the one to beat on reappearance. As you would expect from a Classic Trial, all hold a Derby entry, with River Thames feared most.
