Rocksilla wasn't disgraced in any of her three runs last year and should find a race soon, though it will probably be a handicap. Dream Cast, who started odds-on on her final start at Chepstow in August, has similar credentials while Scala Romana is certain improve from her debut effort at Doncaster six days ago. CRAVE weakened inside the final furlong over a mile at Nottingham two weeks ago but showed good speed up to that point and the drop in distance seems certain to suit. She may well be good enough here granted normal progress.
