Rated 83, Dutch Admiral took his chance in Listed company over a mile here recently but never threatened. He can figure at this level if seeing out the longer trip but JULIET ROSE is preferred. The latter improved for the step up in distance when beaten only a head over course and distance with stablemate Presgrave behind and another bold bid is expected. Dermot Weld also runs two with both Haparanda and Unanswered likely to improve for today’s extra test of stamina though the latter has a recent run under his belt while Figurehead has been gelded since a modest debut effort here in November.
