In depth

Verdict

Sound Of Cheers is consistent enough to get the nod over Green Ideal and Interdit, while Master Sebastian would have claims on the best of his form but has a little to prove after running a shocker last time out. Interdit has a wealth of experience to draw from and is a wily old character. He was found out in much better company last time but will appreciate this ease in grade. The ground should suit but this trip may be on the sharp side for him these days. Green Ideal has been in good heart lately and has plenty in his favour today. Ferdy Murphy seems to have found the key to keeping his interest up and he is expected to provide the selection with the most to do. However, Sound Of Cheers was well on top when they met here last month and, with the drop in trip absolutely ideal for him, this looks fair opportunity for the mount of Kenny Johnson to register course win number three.
