Verdict

ROSA floundered in the soft going at York last time having earlier made a winning debut at Kempton with a subsequent winner back in third. She’s recently switched to Richard Fahey’s yard and gets another chance back on the all-weather with an apprentice’s allowance reducing a penalty. Agent Shiftwell was placed at Newcastle last time when Chocolaat Heer was well beaten and is preferred to East Of Eden, who needs to settle better in the early stages to figure and is fitted with a hood today. Lady Melody is another sporting first-time headgear and may well improve past Autumn Trail.
