Dulas was sent off favourite at Chelmsford but was slowly away and hampered in the closing stages for good measure. He should finish closer to the winner Rock Boy Grey in this but ROCK SOUND makes more appeal. The latter was having only his second outing of the year when beaten a short-head at Chelmsford and is taken to go one better for his new yard. El Hombre has a shout in this grade but is proving best at Wolverhampton and finished runner-up at the latter track last time but Beyond Equal has gone close off a higher mark here in the past.
