      Verdict

      It's been a busy day for Jim Goldie and he saddles three more in this. GRAND DIAMOND and Forrest Flyer are both previous course and distance winners and the former tends to keep better company than this. He can get the better of A Southside Boy, who has scored at the track over hurdles, and Vicky Valentine. Geanie Mac has a poor strike rate but Sergeant Pink won five times over fences last year and has been set some stiff tasks during the winter.
