Verdict

Havelock Ellis scored over the course and distance in September and though raised 10lb he's been running well and only just failed to catch Sharjah over 1m2f last week. ATHASSEL is still a maiden but has rarely been beaten far in any of his starts. The assessor has taken a chance dropping him 3lb for his latest run and he can finally get off the mark. Rock N Rover has been racing over much further and makes his debut on the surface though Tom Madden's claim is a bonus while Rockview Emperor makes a quick reappearance after a decent run behind Rock Angel here on Wednesday. Snap Click has gradually dropped to a mark he should soon be winning from.
