Verdict

FINEST SOUND did too much too soon when third at Newmarket and, 4 lb better off with the runner-up Eastern World, he is taken to reverse the placings and emerge on top here from a good draw and with conditions in his favour. Hartswood, a C&D winner last time, is feared, along with Grand Rock who looks the pick of the William Haggas-trained trio. Cloud Drift also has claims despite his wide draw.
