      Verdict

      Rubensian and Roy Rocket look high enough in the weights and both finished behind Impressive Day when the latter won over a shorter trip here last month. She’s upped 7lb for that success while Wapping beat only two others when scoring at Bath recently and will find this tougher. MORNINGTON is preferred despite a further 7lb rise as he won with a bit at spare at Bath last time having scored over 1m2f here before that. Marcus Tregoning’s charge is taken to continue his good progress over this longer trip.
