In depth

Verdict

Rabbit gets a tentative vote over More Trouble, Raki Rose and Cockspur in a difficult race to weigh up. None of these have paid to follow lately, with only You'vegotmerocking having visited the winner's enclosure in any of his last few starts. With that in mind, nothing can be backed with confidence, and so the pin is brought out to be stuck into Rabbit. Matt Sheppard's mare has slipped down the weights since last year, and goes on the ground, so has a couple of things going for her at least. More Trouble has been off the track for a while, and has cheekpieces on for the first time, while Raki Rose has been off even longer, and was a beaten favourite when last seen. Cockspur has bits and pieces of placed form to his name, so can also be considered, but in a poor race really, the vote goes to Rabbit.
