A winner at Ayr last month, REMEMBER ROCKY is upped 7lb for his recent defeat of Raamz, who runs in the previous division, over course and distance. But this doesn't look much tougher and the hat-trick beckons. Vosne Romanee went close over a mile here last week, but the ground has dried out since then, while Gadabout Dancer has plenty to find with the selection on running at Ayr. Spokesperson may get involved off his current mark and course and distance winner Taxiformissbyron has finally dropped back to a winning mark.
