Verdict

DAY OF ROSES has had injury problems but there were no issues at Stratford last time when he easily disposed of a similarly modest field to this. The stable continue to fire in the winners at an impressive rate and he should have nothing to fear from Midnight Mustang who was 6L behind in second. Conas Taoi landed a better race than this at Carlise and has performed well despite his current mark looking a burden. The drop to this level should see him go close, whilst Kovera will be happier over this sort of trip having found things happening too quickly last time. He is at his best on a sound surface so the possibility of rain needs to be factored in.
