Verdict

Course regular ROCK ON ROCKY has yet to win but is having only his eighth start and may come good in this. Agreement looked like making the frame before falling late on over a longer trip here last month while Dont Tell Pa went close at Huntingdon in between a couple of poor efforts. Oscar Sunset has had just the one outing since winning at Hereford in 2012 and Helium makes more appeal off his current mark.
