ROGUE BEAR won nicely over track and trip earlier in the month. He has plenty of scope for further progress over today’s distance and is preferred to Gainsbourg. The latter showed further improvement when landing a lower grade contest at Pontefract but it was fast ground when Libby Ami went close at Bath. Shawaamekh has done all his winning over 7f so far and placed over the latter trip at York recently while Poet's Lady ran poorly on her return from an absence having scored at Beverley back in May.
