Verdict

GOLDEN HAVANA's reappearance fourth at Newcastle in April produced 3 next-time-out winners and, having posted another solid display when third at that venue on his most recent start 2 weeks ago, he could be worth siding with to prove his mark a workable one back on turf. His stablemate Simba's Pride may emerge as the chief threat, ahead of Riffa Spirit.
