Rosa Of Coma has been running in sellers, but is probably good enough to bridge the gap and take this weak handicap. Gay Kelleway's filly has run with merit on each of six career starts, finally getting her nose in front at Yarmouth in June and following up over that same 7f last month. Steady improvement looks to be the key with her and this extra half furlong might help her find a bit more and complete the hat-trick. Musical Maze has run with credit in four starts so far and acts with some cut in the ground, so improvement is definitely possible. Fastnet Storm looked to be a victim of the handicapper on his debut in this sphere at Newmarket last time, but this is not as competitive and if handling the ground he can go close. Course winner Dispol Diva is visored for the first time and that might help, but in truth she looks out of her depth, while a better proposition may be Hold The Bucks, who should relish this test and may well make the frame but we'll side with Rose Of Coma.
