A far from easy getting out stakes and it wouldn't be the greatest of shocks to see Trojan Rocket being put in at short odds as Michael Wigham's charge has won three of his last four starts. He's never won off a mark of 79 before so we will look to oppose him with SHOWBOATING. Alan McCabe's four-year-old would hardly be classed as unexposed though he is consistent and he's tended to put up some of his better performances at headquarters in the past. Ian McInnes' team are running well so don't rule out Perfect Blossom off top weight despite a 6lb penalty for her victory at Yarmouth. Drift And Dream was a little below par at Doncaster and she is likely to improve for the step back up to six furlongs. She may, however, struggle to confirm form with Cheworee. David Elsworth's filly finished ahead of her on Town Moor and the daughter of Milk It Mick is tried in a hood for the first time.
