In depth
Verdict
A half-sister to bumper and hurdles winners, Roccstar Bay has no weight to speak of thanks to Nathan Brennan’s 7lb claim but the Telescope filly does sport headgear on debut. Ballinrobe runner-up Mrs Grimley also gets a weight-for-age allowance while Fontwell third Monteplex has a chance but jockey bookings suggest course and distance second SORCERESS MEDEA is the pick of her trainer’s two runners and she gets the nod.
