        Verdict

        Cool Sands gets a confident vote over Tee Jay Kassidy and Legal Lover, with Windy Prospect worth a mention at least. Cool Sands has bounced back to form of late, posting a success over seven furlongs here earlier in the month before just being outpaced when attempting a follow-up at Kempton 10-days later. The faster surface caught him out that day, and this step up in trip back here should suit, so he gets a confident vote to get back to winning ways. Tee Jay Kassidy caused a surprise when popping in at 33-1 to beat Haroldini here 15-days ago, and although the extra furlong may suit, he has more to find. Legal Lover likes to make the pace, but was reeled in here last time and appears to be a shade high in the weights at present, while Windy Prospect also has it to do off his current mark. Cool Sands is the percentage call in the finale.
