        Verdict

        Michael Bell's Bonne can win the finale at the main expense of Lambency and Soto. The selection won well last time when she beat Cape Rock at Nottingham and with more improvement anticipated she can get her head in front again. Lambency was well backed before finishing second behind Tilsworth Charlie here last Friday and a reproduction of that effort should see her competitive. Soto will be suited by the return to this trip and the yard do like a tilt at the ring so any market support could be significant. My Kaiser Chief has gone well here in the past and he has each-way prospects, but Bonne is unexposed and she can win again.
