Verdict
HARBOUR VISION finally ended a long losing run when successful at Wolverhampton last week and should make another bold bid. Inexplicable finished behind the selection but has since gone close at Newcastle while Hoots Toots won a classified race here last time. Clipsham Gold and Wheal Kitty won their penultimate starts on Turf while Cloch Nua finished runner-up at Chelmsford and all are worth considering.
