In depth
Verdict
Rozene has questions to answer after weakening quickly when a hot favourite at Nottingham earlier this month and we prefer NOBLE ASSET. John Quinn's gelding was beaten off a lower mark over course and distance on his reappearance but won at Musselburgh next time and wasn't disgraced behind Peterkin at Chester subsequently. Pushkin Museum was last on the Roodeye and looks to have little chance of turning the tables. Musical Molly's recent victory came on the Fibresand and she has a penalty to carry but Kirtling Belle should strip fitter for her run at Carlisle and did score over track and trip last year. Sky's The Limit is back over his best trip and, sporting blinkers, could be the pick of the remainder.
