If Sam Adamson turns out quickly after his emphatic Hereford success on Thursday, he can defy a seven-pound rise to beat Rose Tina. Andy Thornton gets the best out of Seamus Mullins' eight-year-old and there is no reason why he should not complete a hat-trick at the expense of Rose Tina. She opened her account over fences here 12 days ago thanks to forceful tactics from J P McNamara who is in the saddle again. It remains to be seen if she can build on that though as she meets more experienced opposition. Klondike Charger and Phar From A Fiddle cannot be ruled out either, but for the winner we return to Sam Adamson.
