up at Lingfield last time but he’s become a tad frustrating after numerous placed efforts and ROCK ICON is preferred. The latter won over a mile at Lingfield last week but stays this far and also makes more appeal than Pontefract third Michele Strogoff and Stubytuesday, who ran well here last time but has yet to race over 1m2f. Music Seeker finished ahead of the latter when second over a mile here earlier while Scottish Summit is not badly treated as he returns to action.
