Newmarket runner-up FIELD OF GOLD can gain compensation for a narrow defeat in the first Classic of the season. The Gosdens' grey was arguably an unlucky loser, making late headway to lose out by half a length. With Colin Keane taking over in the saddle, the Juddmonte-owned colt has strong claims of taking this prize back across the Irish Sea. Hotazhell, who was a late withdrawal from the French Guineas, has every chance if ready on his first start of the season. Officer needs to take a significant step forward but, as the pick of the Ballydoyle pair, he commands maximum respect. |
The key horse is clearly FIELD OF GOLD, who would probably have been a narrow winner of the 2,000 Guineas last time had his hand been played a touch sooner. That form sets a very high, clear standard and compensation in the form of Classic success now looks pretty likely. Hotazhell was a good, Group 1-winning 2yo who could well claim second, ahead of Rashabar, another very smart juvenile whose good reappearance effort at Newbury last month showed had trained on well. Unbeaten Cosmic Year - in the same ownership as both Field Of Gold and possible pacesetter Windlord - and Aidan O'Brien's progressive Officer are others to consider. |

Steadily progressive colt who made it three from three (all at 7f) in Newmarket Listed race latest; this is significantly harder but 1m should suit better on pedigree and very unexposed. |
