Rummaging had dropped to what looked a winning mark a fortnight ago but couldn't quite hold Texas Radio or MILITARY HILL in the closing stages. Cresendo and Multiviz were only just behind and there's little between them though the runner-up is probably the one to take from the race and gets the vote. Lady Rosebud went up a massive 10lb for beating Texas Radio early last month and couldn't cope on a return visit. She had earlier finished behind Rosenborg Rider, though that was over 7f which is the latter's best trip. So Sensible doesn't win often enough and might just need this after a break.
