In depth

Verdict

Rock On Baileys landed a hat-trick of 5f wins with last week’s success at Lingfield and has been raised a further 8lb. BUNGEE JUMP was no match for a higher rated rival in a claimer at Lingfield last time but went close in a decent handicap at the same track before that and should have the beating of Montague on collateral form. The latter was placed over 7f at Wolverhampton recently but Rastacap and Rockies Spirit are both returning from a lay-off having won novice races last year.
