Verdict

ROCK WARBLER is upped 5lb after opening his account with a win at Newcastle. But he remains relatively unexposed and should go close again. Only Ten Per Cent is often thereabouts at this level without actually winning as when third at Kempton recently while Firesnake was placed off today’s mark at Wolverhampton last time and is another to consider. Fleeting Dream has failed to figure since winning at Salisbury last month but Arlecchino's Rock continues to slide down the weights and could bounce back at any time.
