Verdict
Not a race that will live long in the memory and GRANNY ROZ is put forward with least reluctance about her negatives. Placed in her last two starts in maiden company, she hails from an in-form yard and with a likely main rival ineligible following a victory on Thursday, her claims seem obvious. Rapid Ranger is yet to match the performances of his canine namesake though he’s lightly raced. A debut for David O'Meara provided at least a degree of encouragement. Hamidans Girl and Tagur have now reached double digits without breaking their duck. In fairness, they have faced much tougher opposition than this in the past, and as they hail from two exceptionally shrewd yards, any market interest should not be ignored.
