Barry Hills doesn't send many into selling company so Stellar Express is certainly of interest. She filled the minor placing in a Goodwood auction maiden on soft ground, but it's hard to tell how she'll react to this quicker surface, whilst Adranian is interesting dropped into this lowly grade for the first time. However, ROOKNRASBRYRIPPLE looks the one to be with as Mick Channon's charge is the only distance winner on show, handles the ground and showed a commendably resilient attitude when landing a Thirsk seller last time.
