RATHLIN ROSE has the best BHA rating in the lineup and it is possible that mark underestimates him having beaten a 120-rated horse by a distance on his chasing debut. He will come on a great deal for his reappearance last month when he was not disgraced in coming from off the pace to finish fourth in a better race than this. His best form has been shown under more positive rides and with the blinkers reapplied he could take some catching. Troika Steppes jumps and stays well and looks the main danger from a yard that have done well here in the military races over the past few years. Ardkilly Witness has reserved his best performances for this venue and he may not be far away.
