RUBELLITE has been successful twice over course and distance and remains in excellent form, as shown when an unlucky third here 9 days ago after meeting trouble in running. Cloudside Rock justified support when scoring at Ffos Las but needs to prove himself on all-weather, while Percy Willis is a reliable performer with three course and distance victories to his name.
