Verdict
Nap Hand won at Salisbury despite failing to keep a straight line and is fitted with a hood. But STREETS OF GOLD wasn’t unduly troubled to win by four lengths at Chepstow on his debut and with Georgia Dobie’s allowance reducing a penalty, he gets the vote. Manitou had the measure of Geralt Of Rivia when third at Ffos Las while Juliet Sierra can include a Grade 1 winner at Keeneland among her winning relatives and is preferred to Nuggle of the newcomers.
