Verdict

Casbah Rock didn't quite last out 1m4f at Dundalk on Saturday having scored over a furlong less there a couple of weeks earlier. He should go well while Lisa Gherardini is at the right end of the weights having had the requisite three runs and is just the type Jim Bolger does so well with. Galakina showed some promise in her first season and should do better but ARTICILITIS will have come on for her run behind Torphichen here last month and, as she has always gone well on faster ground and is reasonably well treated, gets the vote in a tricky contest. Stoned Immaculate is better over further and has still to lose his maiden tag after 29 career starts.
