Verdict

A case can be made for lots of these but DREAM FOR GOLD has looked an improved model since being gelded and can go one better than when an excellent recent second here. Strong Johnson makes appeal at these weights and is next on the list. Course-specialist Bonito Cavalo and other C&D scorers Pepsi Cat and Castan must come into the reckoning too.
