FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Last time out winners Rock On Barney and KRISTIAN GOINGWEL might be the ones to focus in on principally. Rock On Barney has won three of his last four, including at Wetherby earlier in the month. The handicapper is making it more difficult for the Gilligan horse but he’s got to be very much respected in any case. Kristian Goingwel meanwhile, could be another progressive sort judging on his breakthrough win at Down Royal last time. The grey was well-backed then and an eight pound rise may not be enough to stop him from following up. Going up in trip is hardly going to inconvenience the selection as he’s already competed over staying distances.
