SOUND OF LIGHTNING shaped with plenty of encouragement and was noted doing her best work at the finish when third on debut in a Curragh maiden (10f) 28 days ago. Very much the type to build on that, the daughter of Fastnet Rock is fancied to make a bold bid to provide Donnacha O'Brien with a second consecutive win in this race. Nobler, Vorfreude and Reyenzi are others to consider, Cooley's Mist is another to keep an eye on.
