Verdict
Miss Rosina has a shout but was due to run at Yarmouth yesterday. Eternalist remains 5lb higher than when scoring at Thirsk and finished behind ARCHIMEDES at Haydock last time though neither figured on that occasion. But the latter has subsequently gone close over track and trip before winning at Bath during the week and may be up to defying a penalty in his current form. Oriental Splendour has struggled since scoring at Pontefract last month and Muatadel has yet to win.
