Tilly Trotter won over track and trip before struggling in a higher grade contest here when finishing behind the runner-up RAZIN’ HELL. The latter was beaten only a neck and can go one better. Brother Tiger found only one too good here last time but this is tougher while Rosina bids for a treble on the back of victories at Chelmsford and Newcastle and debuts on the Fibresand. Pearl Acclaim is best on this surface and can reverse latest running at Newcastle with Fruit Salad.
