Say Nothing might be running into form and Poker Master won twice over 2m here earlier in the year but George Bancroft has rarely looked like adding to his debut victory at Fontwell more than a year ago. ROCK THE HOUSE (NAP), a previous course and distance winner, appears to have turned a corner recently. He was clear of the rest when second to Pottlerath at Hereford last month with the latter running well again at the same track next time. Cobbs Corner has only gone up 4lb for winning at Fakenham and there may be more to come.
