      Verdict

      Chelmsford winner Moonday Sun went close again at Lingfield last time and can race off the same mark today. Rockwood continues to improve and bids for hat-trick of course wins. He had Almanack behind last time but COOL MUSIC looks to have a decent chance of reversing running with the former on their form here back in January. Beaten less than a length in third, Antony Brittain's charge re-opposes on much better terms today. Rock Song continues to slip down the weights and is preferred to Lean On Pete.
