Verdict
Biplane scored at Newcastle last time and her only win on Turf so far came at this track last season. But Jim Goldie has sent out the last two winners of this and RORY gets the vote having been beaten less than a length on his last couple of outings, including over this trip at Musselburgh on Saturday. Alpine Sierra and Oot Ma Way debut for the selection’s yard while Retirement Beckons could only manage fourth in this last year.
