Verdict

Irish raider Six Silver Lane came to Scotland last month and won a similar handicap to this so a 5lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. Callum Rodriguez has ridden DOLPHIN ROCK to all three recent victories, including one over this course and distance. Richard Ford's charge won a better grade handicap than this last time and though some rain would be appreciated he's won on good ground and can continue his winning ways. Rachel Richardson is one of the more experienced pilots here and her mount A Lovable Rogue is in cracking form, though he's stepping up markedly in trip having raced over 6f on his two latest starts. Ingleby Spirit is another going well at present and she's still on a fair mark despite going up 4lb for finishing second at Carlisle.
