Let It Be has a live chance of landing his three-timer. Estate and Rock 'N' Roller can provide the sternest challenges. Rock 'N' Roller stays well and has solid claims in this company. The four-year-old has fewer miles on the clock than most and is better than his last two starts would have you believe. However, he does have a little to prove, so may be a touch risky for win only purposes. Estate is versatile regarding the ground and brings solid form to the table. A strong gallop will bring the best out of him and he is very capable of making a bold attempt today. However, Let It Be has a leading chance on these terms and, as he still has room to manoeuvre from his current rating, the Keith Reveley-trained gelding looks a solid option today.
