Verdict

CLOUDY WEDNESDAY looked back to his best when edged out only by an unexposed sort at Huntingdon last week so can resume winning ways off the same mark. Low-mileage veteran Vetoncall stepped up on his return when fourth at Chepstow and rates the main threat back on his winning mark, with Conceroe best of the others.
