The vote goes to GOLDSMITH, who has been knocking on the door of late and his latest Epsom second off this mark can be upgraded a touch as he wasn't ideally placed. Gelded since his latest start and now equipped with more severe headgear, Umberto rates the main danger but there are several others with claims in this competitive handicap, including King Cabo and recent Windsor winner Time's Eye. Billy Mill would also be a threat if bouncing back.
