FEVER ROQUE has made a solid start over fences and this looks weaker than the contest in which he was third at Wetherby last time, so he takes preference over Gipsy Lee Rose, who is the only other one to arrive in form. Knocknamona won this race off the same mark last year, so he's worthy of interest despite some tame recent efforts.
