Verdict
ROCK ANTHEM ducked under the stalls and unseated Martin Dwyer when Stylistickhill won here last month but proved himself no worse for the experience when a good third to Space War subsequently. Mike Murphy's gelding is potentially well weighted nowadays and can win for the first time since December last year. Victories are few and far between for Elijah Pepper nowadays while Kingswinford usually finds at least one too good and Glass Mountain was beaten in a seller last time. Aquilonius seems to have lost his way so My Single Malt could prove the pick of the remainder.
