Verdict
ROCKCLIFFE is upped 5lb for winning at Musselburgh in February but Micky Hammond’s charge did beat a subsequent dual winner on that occasion and is taken to go in again. He has the beating of Budarri on collateral form, though the latter improved to finish second in heavy going here last time when Hardrock Davis fell. Alfiboy went close on testing ground at Newcastle last week and has a shout but Derrynane remains 9lb higher than when scoring at Catterick in January.
