Verdict
Rock of Ages finished second at Southwell in between a couple of woeful efforts on faster ground and may get involved. The veteran Father Shine has a shout if reproducing his latest third over today's trip at Catterick and Royal Defence is back on soft going for the first time since finishing runner-up on the Turf at Lingfield early in the year. TICOZ is a winner in Germany and has recently joined Marco Botti. He may well be up to making a winning start for his new yard in this modest company and gets the nod.
