GARTH ROCKETT failed in a bid for a hat-trick when only third at Kempton but still finished ahead of several of these including Hit The Beat. He won from a high draw over track and trip earlier and gets another chance in this. Rajman scored at Kempton last time and won off today’s mark here at the start of the year while French Twist found one too good at Wolverhampton last week but the less exposed Maqboola is preferred having just failed to make all at the latter track on her latest start.
