Verdict

It's been the thick end of 3 years since PHANTOM GOLD was last seen on a racecourse but, provided that the market vibes surrounding this 8-y-o are upbeat, he may nevertheless prove too good for these. Bright Legend and Who's Glen both put in good shifts in handicaps last time and will likely fight out the finish if Phantom Gold isn't fit enough to do himself justice.

  1. PHANTOM GOLD (IRE)
  2. BRIGHT LEGEND (IRE)
  3. WHO'S GLEN (FR)
