Verdict

Roaring Rory was well ahead of David's Beauty when scoring over track and trip and carries a penalty today. It Must Be Faith went close over 6f here during the week but has not won since 2014 now and GIVE US A BELLE is preferred. The latter was headed in the closing stages when runner-up here last time but finished ahead of both Dandilion and Jack The Laird and it could be his turn again today. Dream Ally was placed over course and distance recently but has done all his winning over 6f so far.
