Rousayan bids for a hat-trick but has done all his winning so far on fast going. Raselasad has placed on good to firm the last twice though went close on his only previous start in soft and should be in the mix once again but MEDAHIM (NAP) is preferred. Ivan Furtado’s charge finished clear of the rest when finding only one too good in soft going at York last time and and that also looks stronger form than Luis Vaz De Torres’ recent victory at Beverley. The latter is upped in class for this but Hells Babe will find this easier than her latest task in Listed company at Chester.
