Rowanberry is running back into form and can account for Haroldini, with Detonate and Trouble Maker others that can get involved in the shake-up. This certainly looks up for grabs with nothing catching the eye too much, but Rowanberry, successful on Turf at Yarmouth over six furlongs last August, has done enough to suggest that her turn is near again. Robert Cowell's filly was sent off favourite here a fortnight ago on the strength of an earlier promising comeback run at Wolverhampton, but had no luck in running. She was short of room at the top bend and then was denied room in the straight before flying home right behind Flying Dane. She has a low draw to contend with here, but if made use of early, can make a bold bid to get the losses back. Haroldini had the run of the race when taking a Southwell claimer last time, and has more on his plate, while Detonate is still a maiden after 24 starts. He may improve for the step back up in trip but is hard to fancy otherwise. Trouble Maker has not progressed at all since looking better than Banded class when scoring at Wolverhampton in January and is best watched again, with Rowanberry's recent form making her the percentage call.
