      In depth

      Verdict

      Brianna Rose looks the logical choice after her excellent second in a Southwell bumper, form that looks much better than Massimo's fourth of five on the same track. However, PICK UP THE PIECES has a mainly Flat-based pedigree and may have too much pace for these providing the ground doesn't turn testing. Highland Light may do best of the remainder.
