Rosses Point gets the confident vote here with Sharp Belline and Fullards rating the main dangers. The selection won with plenty in hand last time out when beating Nivarna Swingand although having a penalty for that win he will be higher again in the weights from Monday and under conditions that suit he is hard to oppose. Sharp Belline rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Jungle Jinks, he loves this track and will not be far away but he has yet to win off a mark this high and he is taken on with this in mind. Fullards is another that could go well as he beat Wee Anthony last time out, however that form has since been let down and he looks vulnerable off this higher mark in this more competitive affair.Of the remainder Rare Gold is sure to stripp fitter here than on his debut run and with his yard in form he should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Rosses Point.
