Formscan - Royal Rocket had been improving until posting a below-par effort over 2m7f at Market Rasen last month and may bounce back over this shorter trip on his handicap bow. However, preference is for JAFIMGOSO, who should also be suited by cutting back in distance and has to potential to improve with first-time cheekpieces added. Purple Owl tries the same headgear combined with a tongue-tie and is another to bear in mind.
