There should be more to come from ROCK THE HOUSE now stepping up to 3m so he's selected to make light of a 4 lb rise for last month's breakthrough success at Huntingdon. Shaws Bridge was a stylish winner here last month and could be a big threat if his stamina holds now going up in trip again. Dequall and Wakool are also on the shortlist.
