Verdict

First-time blinkers finally persuaded INSIGNIA to put his best foot forward at Fontwell five days ago. There is some doubt that the headgear will work a second time but Ed Glassonbury's claim negates his penalty and credible opposition does look thin on the ground in this finale. A visor is unlikely to spark sufficient improvement in Sonus Weld while Storm Command produced a woeful performance when favourite at Hereford last time. Hereditary and Laughing Game also have plenty to prove on this season's efforts.
