RAISE THE TEMPO is bred to appreciate this step up in trip and she can get off the mark at the fourth attempt on just her second handicap start. The selection was doing her best work late on when making her handicap debut in March and is taken to get the better of recent winner Rockfish who had a number of these behind him when winning at Cork. A Few Bob Short finished third in that Cork contest and he can fill the same position on this occasion.
