ROSHINA just about looks the call in the handicap that closes out the card after her dead-heat win last time with both Copperwood and I Confess up in the weights despite defeat. The handicapper seems to have fair with his assessment of the pick raising her mark by 3lbs. She was only just joined on the line last time and with the first two clear of the next home she should make a bold bid. Copperwood is also up 3lbs from his last run but that's following a reverse. He's been running consistently well but he does now look a little high in the handicap. I Confess is also under a heavier burden despite defeat last time. He's placed off higher ratings in the past and his yard remain in good form. Sotik Star is racing off bottom weight and after some good efforts in defeat can get into the places again but for the winner we like Roshina.
