Verdict

Fine Rightly has done well since the turn of the year. He chased home last week's Aintree Grade 1 winner Sizing Granite at Naas in January and returned to that track last month to win a Grade 3 having scored over this track and trip in between. He'll be a tough nut to crack but OSCAR ROCK is finally starting to fulfil his potential and can complete the hat-trick. He has won his last two at Newcastle and Kelso with the proverbial ton in hand and a step up to this level is a natural progression. Solar Impulse is unproven over this trip and Grate Fella doesn't look good enough while Seventh Sky will be having his 16th start of a busy campaign and could find a couple of these are a lot more progressive. Top Gamble looked as though he'd had enough for the season last time at Ascot.
