We did almost exactly this a couple of weeks ago and it came out nice. We used Saaz and did a dry hop addition, ended up with a really pleasant summer cream ale.
For me, Saaz is very understated so just hints of bitterness and very little flavour; fuggles would be much the same. Cascade I like very much, it's not an overwhelming hop like Citra but for me it gives really nice subtle floral/citrus flavours.Goldings is one of our 'go-to' hops for English pales, more earthy and old school than anything, not sure it's right for a beer without a bit of complexity in the grain bill.
All very subjective though isn't it?
