Rosie All Over looked better value then her official winning margin at Warwick last time and can defy a 5lb rise in a race that won't take lots of winning. Bottomless ground and anything between two and two-and-a-half miles suit Donald McCain's mare and she can make this a true test of stamina under Jason McGuire, whom she gets on well with, and add a fourth career win to her CV. Bamby won a good ground selling hurdle at Perth last July but gave Tjade Collier an awful moment when ducking out at Carlisle last time and her temperament will come under scrutiny again here. Asrar has had a couple of pipe openers on the flat so will be better for those, and she has a feather weight to carry, but she has to show us more over hurdles before becoming backable. Flying Freedom has won a seller but looks weighted up to the hilt, the latter comment also applying to Pendle Forest, and Delightfully has frame claims. However, Rosie All Over looks a progressive mare and she gets the confident vote.
