        Verdict

        A dire contest where we won't dwell too long and GOLDEN SQUARE showed enough last time to suggest he might nick this, while Amwell House and Halsion Challenge are respected. The selection represents the in-form yard of Tony Carroll and went close over course and distance, staying on well last time out. Consistency is not a strong point, so he is not one to be lumping on, but he may be up to it. Amwell House is adaptable in terms of trip, or perhaps that could read as tripless, for he remains a maiden after 18 starts on the level. He acts on this surface and recent form gives him a squeak. Riviera Red had the beating of Halsion Challenge last time and John Best's gelding has to prove he stays this far, but if doing so then he should be on the premises. Szaba might show more now she has cheek pieces applied, while Dark Desert should be bang there the way the weights are framed here. Golden Square is the one for us.
