ROPARTA AVENUE easily beat Bawden Rocks and Ya Hafed here last month. Though the second has let the form down since, Diana Grissell's unexposed stayer may be capable of following up off a 12lb higher mark. Molly Oscar is not out of this with a clear round and Lamb's Cross usually runs his race, though is on a long losing run while Veauce De Sivola is getting no nearer. Kinari is still plummeting down the weights but has to show much improvement for it.
