ROCK WARBLER started the season on an 18lb higher mark and showed the benefit when going very close at Wolverhampton last time. He can confirm running with Dream Ally and go one better. Slim Chance has been threatening off similar marks on Turf but is without a win on the all-weather in 10 attempts while Call Me Crockett was runner-up over a mile last time but hasn’t raced over 6f since his two-year-old days. Lilvanita is lightly raced and may improve back in a handicap today.
