Gulland Rock has done all his winning over shorter trips so far, including his latest over 7f at Kempton in March. Samphire Coast is having only his second start on Turf having won at Chelmsford last month while King Oswald went close at Haydock recently but has just the one win in 18 attempts. Ross Raith Rover has every chance on the back of finishing a close-up third here but RUSTIQUE (NAP) gets the nod to come out best now back on a winning mark having won twice at the track last season.
