Argent Knight is penalised for last week’s win at Wolverhampton and MOONSHINE RIDGE is preferred. She has rattled-up a hat-trick at Southwell recently having won a bumper at this track in November - Alan Swinbank’s mare should be in the mix back on Turf. Rock On Bollinski was placed in amateur company last time and has won over 2m before but the veteran La Bacouetteuse is preferred having won three times over track and trip in the past. Pass Muster went close the last time he raced over course and distance and has had a recent outing over hurdles.
