Verdict

A win for course icon Roy Rocket would bring the house down but the winner of this in 2018/2016 off marks of 55 and 61 looks a light of his former self this season and it the winner of this is sought in other quarters. Simon Walker’s mount always attracts support in this company so it’s to be expected that Orobas will be prominent in the market in what looks a trappy heat. Strictly Art and Sigrid Nansen can both be given chances on some of their form but neither are what you would call solid citizens. HAPPY ENDING gets a tentative vote after showing that a revival could be on the cards last time at Bath under a considerate ride back at the scene of her only win.
