Verdict
Several of these won between the flags last time and most have some sort of chance here. Roskeen Bay beat subsequent winner Gentle Jim at Aldington 17 days ago but Mister Tibus' victory at Higham looks better form and he appears to be on the upgrade. But we narrowly prefer Gina Andrews' mount OMME ANTIQUE, who only scrambled home at Dingley last month but is relatively lightly raced and may have scope for further improvement.
