In the finale, the vote goes to Final Tune ahead of Khyber Night and Snow Symphony. Final Tune's Catterick second to Cindertrack last time stacks up as form here and he gets a good mention. Snow Symphony's latest improved could by now have been boosted by Miss McGuire earlier on the card (Shinko was further behind). Carloman improved in first-time blinkers last time and can go well if they work again. Royal Tavira Girl has been knocking at the door of late and could get placed again, while Lady Duxyana showed improved form last time and, finally, given that he is set to go up by 13 pounds in the ratings following her Chepstow second to Dancing Storm, Khyber Night has to be seriously considered. Captain Bolsh might prove best of the others. We, though, will just side with Final Tune.
