Verdict
Rigmarole is progressing nicely and should continue to perform well whilst the ground is in his favour. He is at the top of his game and is thriving on his racing. That said he is not likely to represent much in the way of value and if Just Murphy copes with the firmer ground he could run Rigmarole very close. The forecast showers are also in his favour and he is not without a chance of confirming the form of the last meeting between the pair. Trained Bythe Best looks the pick of the rest.
