Race preview
RHOSCOLYN ran with great credit to finish fourth in a Group 2 at Sandown last month and though David O'Meara's gelding has a bit to find according to the ratings, he could be the answer back in Listed company. He can repel the challenge of the progressive Aldaary, who appears to be the main danger, although William Haggas' charge has three lengths to find with the selection on their meeting at Goodwood last May. Misty Grey is likely to go well from the front and must be feared, especially if given an easy lead, while Safe Voyage enters calculations after a respectable effort in the Lincoln.
