Verdict

Rose Red sets the form standard on her three runs this year, notably when beaten by the minimum margin here last time and her consistency merits reward but she's still a maiden. This looks a decent chance for her but this could also be the time to catch YOUM JAMIL despite being 1lb out of the handicap. He's only been seen once over timber in the past two years but is fit from the Flat where he's performed competently at a modest level. He's worth a shot here with Paddy Brennan an eye-catching booking. Gin And Tonic and Empty The Tank could both play a part if bringing their A game to the table.
