In depth
Verdict
A competitive field goes to post for this seller with many in form rivals in opposition including Silent Sound Doucer Des Songes and Richie's Delight and we will take a chance on Silent Sound. The gelding from the Colin Tizzard yard showed improved form in first time blinkers behind Val De Fleurie last time. That horse has since franked the form and if the blinkers work again he will be hard to beat. Doucer Des Songes rates the main danger as he has dropped to a handy mark and he has conditions in his favour. Richie's Delight is another worthy of respect but his his best efforts of late have come with more cut in the ground so for that reason he is opposed on this occasion. Timeless Chick could also go well she is from a yard in form and was a fair second behind Jonalton last time but we are happy to stick with Silent Sound.
