Classical Rose is upped 4lb for her recent win over track and trip but should still be thereabouts in this company.

She has tumbled 17lb down the weights this year and posted a better effort over 6f at Windsor recently. Depth Charge and Duke Of North are handicap debutants to keep an eye on in the betting.
