Muhaarar gelding. Half-brother to French hurdler Conspiracy Theory. Dam 7.4f/8.3f winner on Flat. Should have enough speed for this test, so worth a market check.

€40,000 3-y-o, £70,000 5-y-o, Walk In The Park mare. Half-sister to 4 winners, including ungenuine but smart hurdler/useful chaser Blow By Blow, stays 25f. Successful sole start in Irish points (Mar 5) and makes plenty of appeal on Rules debut.

Forecasts

Rose In The Park (6/4), Madam Ryder (5/2), Maggie O (16/5), Classical Music (13/2), Late Getaway (8/1), Bobby's Fortune (16/1)

Having won her only start between the flags, ROSE IN THE PARK is well worth a chance to maintain her unbeaten record on Rules bow. Madam Ryder is likely to improve on her debut and looks the main threat, although Maggie O, another point winner, can't be ruled out.
