Outlaw Torn is usually thereabouts in this grade. Richard Price has sent two up from Herefordshire with Chepstow specialist Zaria preferred to Champagne Bob. Haidees Reflection has won at Ayr and Newcastle this season while Dark Crystal only found one too good over 7f at Ayr last week. But Know Your Name has been creeping up the weights without winning and Saltarello also looks worth opposing again. ROCKET RONNIE takes a significant drop in class and the fitting of blinkers can see him end his losing run off what looks a very favourable mark.
