Verdict
Despite a middle-distance pedigree, ROGUE SPIRIT has won twice over the minimum trip so far and placed in the Super Sprint at Newbury last time. He’ll most likely stay this longer distance and gets the vote. Priors Dell landed a double over today’s trip with his latest victory at Newbury while Cold Case landed the odds at York and further progress can see him go close. The latter has the beating of Rock Of England on collateral form and Wen Moon is another upped in trip.
