OLD FASHION nearly took advantage of slip down the weights when finishing second at Thirsk and Mike Appleby's filly can go one better with an apprentice's claim helping her cause. Today's opposition does not inspire much confidence given Mister Rockandroll has struggled since scoring on the all-weather in March and Moon Arc has been well beaten either side of winning at Hamilton last month. But Night Generation is unexposed and should be noted in the betting stepping up in trip for Sir Mark Prescott.
