        Verdict

        John Gosden has a fine chance of taking the first division and his newcomer GREAT SOUND, a 320,000gns son of Galileo out of a mare who has produced winners with her first three foals, looks to have been found an opportunity to make a successful debut here. Henry Croft was trained by Gosden last season and ran well in a couple of maidens but has only run moderately on the all-weather for new connections. Lexington Law looks to have been bought with hurdling in mind while Sheila's Fancy will need to step up on his run at Lingfield in March. Cold Shoulder is another newcomer to note being a full brother to a Grade 1 winner in Australia and related to several more winners.
