Sandown third Rocket Rob looks to be running into form and is better drawn here. But Willie Musson complicates matters by also running progressive three-year-old Dont Have It Then. Triple Chocolate and Amadeus Wolfe Tone could hardly be in better form and Guishan rattled up a hat-trick before finishing third at Pontefract. Generalyse won at Leicester a month ago but this is a lot more competitive and Carlisle scorer Shades Of Silk also needs more. Sammy Jo Bell has struck up a good understanding with Arctic Feeling and the top weight shouldn't be far away but the handicapper is finally showing MON BRAV a little leniency and Brian Ellison's sprinter is weighted to reverse recent running with a few of these so get the nod.
