Verdict
INDIAN SOUNDS will be sharper for last month’s fourth over track and trip. Cheekpieces are applied for this and Paul Midgley’s charge gets a speculative vote to end a long losing run off his current mark. Modular Magic is another that has slipped down the weights and he ran well at Southwell last time while Kraken Power finished in front of Wee Fat Mac when third here last week and drops back down to the minimum trip.
