Rose Berry was successful off this mark the last time she raced over a trip this short and she’s been keeping better company so far this year. Chris Dwyer’s filly makes more appeal than January’s Wolverhampton second Mr Pocket and also Liberatum, who looks a few pounds too high at present. SUPER JULIUS won a similar contest over track and trip last summer and is now 2lb lower. He never really threatened on his reappearance at Newmarket but will strip fitter today.
