Verdict
COOLEFIND was well beaten in much better company when last seen over regulation fences. However, he had landed a hat trick in hunter chases before that including a victory at this track when beating today's rival Fruitfull Citizen by four lengths. Fit from winning a point-to-point, Stuart Morris' charge is just preferred to Armoury House, who beat a subsequent winner in one of these races at Taunton last month and should make another bold bid.
