Verdict

Several recent winners in the lineup here and preference is for Tiger's Rocket ahead of What's For Tea and Bridge Of Fermoy. On official ratings only four pounds separates Bridge Of Fermoy and Tiger's Rocket and at the weights they come off level. If we are to believe the ratings then it should be close but the feeling is that Richard Hannon's gelding has more to come. Bridge Of Fermoy is not straightforward but reacted well to the application of a visor when successful at Kempton and assuming it works for the second time then a big run can be expected. What's for Tea would certainly rate a danger on his first start for a new stable if able to get an easy lead, whilst Carry On Cleo should not be ruled out for a shrewd yard. An open race, with preference for Tiger's Rocket.
