ROSEDALE TOPPING has the form in the book and as such looks the logical choice. There are plenty of potential traps for punters with the John Best pair Seaquinn and King Athelstan, plus Forricherforpoorer and Balgowlah, all open to improvement. That quartet are potential springers in the market, whilst Philip Hide has got his horses back to form after a quiet spell so Valerie's Memory could prove a surprise package.
