BERKSHIRE ROCCO should come on for his comeback here 2 weeks ago and was a good fifth in the Ebor off this mark last season, so he could be the answer down in class. Too Friendly failed to meet expectations in the Chester Cup but he'll find this test more suitable, while Hope You Can Run is worth another go at this trip.
