Several are old foes with Rose Bandit beating Hard Solution in a selling handicap here last week. The latter re-opposes on better terms having landed a double over 6f earlier in the month. He accounted for the subsequent winner Stronsay and Alsvinder when scoring here while Lord Of The Glen is another with something to find. TWELVE DIAMONDS has yet to win but a decent fourth at Newmarket last time suggests her turn is not far away and Michael Herrington’s filly gets the vote.
