      In depth

      Verdict

      A winner three times already this season, including over course and distance three weeks ago, SOUTHERN ROCK is fancied to defy a further 4lb rise as he still looks to be on an upward curve. Madeeh made little impact on his handicap debut at Sandown and has switched stables since but The Trader would have a chance on his Epsom second in June and will appreciate this drop in grade. Amber Spark won here in June and is only 2lb higher but Irish import Jupiter Road has finished last in his two runs for Nigel Tinkler.
