Verdict
Another riddle for punters but BIG SOUND looks as solid as any. He hails from the in-form Walford yard and was always travelling well when scoring over fences here last month under Emma Todd. The combination reverts to hurdles here but is taken to follow up at the main expense of Acajou Des Bieffes, much improved last time when accounting for Theflyingportrait here and a likely improver for this step up in trip. Ereyna went down by the minimum margin here last time for the shrewd Stuart Edmunds team and can get involved off a 4lb higher rating, with Magic Money and the lightly-raced Adam du Breteau also worth a second look.
