Verdict

Rocknest Island gets the confident vote to get the better of Garnett and True. The selection wasn't beaten all that far when finishing fourth behind Great As Gold at Pontefract last time. Her only win on the turf came on ground like today's and in a race that will not take much winning she can get her head in front. True is a course and distance winner but she is another that is better on fast ground and she wasn't beaten in a claimer here last time so she looks worth opposing. Garnett ran well on his return to the flat last time at Ripon when finishing third behind Industrial Star. However, his best form is on a faster surface and for that reason we will take him on. Figaro's Quest is unproven over the trip and has been off the track since last August so may need the run and we will stick with Rocknest Island to lead them home.
