The betting will probably offer some clues to the relative chances of these newcomers but Mark Johnston's two-year-olds are in fine form and have a decent overall strike rate at this venue. RAINBOW REBEL is related to a couple of winners and may well be good enough. Bill Turner sent out last year's winner and Raise The Game is a half-brother to Red Pike, who won four times as a three-year-old. Go Marnie and New Road Side are related to juvenile winners and preferred to Luvly.
