ROSEDALE appeals as a punters choice ahead of Dutiful and Decency. The last named has been in good heart - responding well for Kieren Fallon to win at Kempton before going very close at Folkestone 19 days ago. Ed Dunlop is keeping the son of Celtic Swing busy and, assuming he handles the ground and responds kindly for today's new pilot, a bold bid can be expected again here. Dutiful rounded off last year with a couple of sound performances and, having now got the benefit of a seasonal run behind him; he should also be capable of getting involved in the thick of the action. However, Rosedale seems to be very effective at this intermediate trip and, as she is back on a very fair mark, James Toller's filly could easily provide the surprise package of a tightly-knit handicap.
