        Verdict

        Rafiki won over 7f at Wolverhampton back in October but Rogue Force has the more recent form when scoring over the same trip at Kempton last month. WAKE UP HARRY is another penalised for winning but the Derby entry scored easily over course and distance last time and there looks plenty more to come from him. Oisin Murphy returns to action on Rain Gauge but the latter disappointed at Wolverhampton recently and drops down in distance while Light Beam never figured here on his debut and the Godolphin charge is fitted with headgear for this.
