17:00 Southwell
GOLD STANDARD 25/1 0.5pt E/W (1pt)
(Hills)
Definitely overpriced, and trained by one of the shrewdest in the business in Tony Carroll. Gold
Standard's last win came round Southwell in a 0-55 handicap over a furlong shorter. He's been seen 5 times this season; he shaped in need of the run on re-appearance, was held up and never threatened across his next 2, and his most recent 2 runs have come down over 1m1f trips too short, running respectably, might I add, given the circumstances. A bottom level 0-50 classified race awaits, returned to his last winning venue, stepped back up to a better suited 1m4f. If he's trying today, there's no
reason as to why he can't run well.
