Gold Star Hero
Record of 4-5 on AW features a hat-trick since being gelded; chance depends on whether he can transfer the form back to turf; only 1-11 in this sphere and he is 16lb higher than last attempt.

From the connections
“Being gelded has obviously been a big help to Gold Star Hero, and having the winter off too. You couldn't really ask for more, to go bang, bang, bang like that. He has won on turf before, but he's clearly a better horse this year. It will be interesting to see if he can transfer his all-weather form back onto turf. We could go to Epsom or Chester, we'll see, but he's clearly an exciting, progressive sprinter - Michael Bell, trainer.”
