Verdict
CARP KID (NAP) won at Windsor recently with Oriental Art back in third. The latter has subsequently gone close at Yarmouth so the form looks solid enough in this context. Eton Blue has been in the mix at Brighton lately while Trojan Truth won at Windsor back in May and Rose Light should appreciate this drop back down in trip.
