Brockey Rise only won a seller at Wolverhampton nine days ago but this isn’t much better. Oisin Murphy rides but he does have a wide draw to overcome. Trotter is only 1-19 but ran well in a claimer here back in October, though is also drawn high. Fantasy Justifier has won four times on Turf and was second to the in-form Krazy Paving at Kempton on his latest start. The eight-year-old is on a decent mark at present but QUICK RECOVERY was an eye-catcher at Lingfield last month when returning from a break and is less exposed so gets the vote.
