Verdict

Iconic Figure cost a lot of money and any significant moves in the market should be noted but ROSE MARMARA looks as though she'll take some beating with her allowance and guaranteed fitness. Richard Fahey's filly was racing on the opposite side to the winner when just touched off at Nottingham and can go one better. Haughmond was beaten three lengths by the Fahey-trained Early Bird at Catterick and has had enough chances but Sunnyside Bob didn't enjoy racing on soft ground at Haydock and is better judged on earlier runs on quicker going.
