The effect of the draw on the sprint course here nowadays seems negligible so stall 12 will hopefully not be a disadvantage for ROSWOOD, who is by Birchwood who was a smart two-year-old trained by Richard Fahey. She is a half-sister to four winners. Of those with experience, Chumbaa has placed four times but is thoroughly exposed and Patasola was beaten in a claimer at Beverley last time. Back Before Dark and Consoling showed promise on debuts, however, while Project Geofin stayed on strongly at Beverley having missed the break and he’ll know more today.
