Verdict
La Roca Del Fuego has won twice here this year but is 9lb higher than last month’s success while Irish Times scored over track and trip in July. The Tron was placed yet again when runner-up here last week and MAID MILLIE (NAP) will be sharper for a recent comeback run. The latter beat Lingfield winner Perfect Symphony when landing last year’s renewal off today’s mark and another bold bid is expected. Sea Fern has more scope than most as she drops back down in trip.
