Roma Bangkok made a winning start at Chelmsford but a tongue-tie is applied today having faded quickly away on his reappearance at Kempton. Charlie Arthur is another who failed to show any progress last time so a chance is taken on the returning RHOSSILI DOWN. Placed at Newbury on her debut and not beaten far at Newmarket in October, despite finishing only ninth, Charlie Hills’ filly may prove good enough. Dabouk is related to useful winners on the all-weather, including Salateen, while fellow newcomer A Hundred Echoes can not be ignored with his yard in such good form.
