In depth
Verdict
Rivas Rob Roy scored over track and trip in February but could only manage fourth over a mile here last time and is 6lb higher today. Sonnetina was well beaten after winning at Brighton last May and has something to prove now while RAJMAN failed to settle in the early stages at Kempton last time. But Tom Clover’s charge has won three times over today’s trip and gets another chance only 2lb higher than when last successful. Fard never figured at Kempton earlier in the week on his debut for a new yard while Break The Silence saves his best for Southwell.
