ROCKY'S SILVER has been in good form in recent starts and he can register a third victory in four starts by taking this competitive handicap chase. The selection has won here in the past and he can get the better of last years winner Cappacurry Zak who has to defy top weight. The Ballyboys has a top jockey in the saddle here and he can finish third in this event.
