Three 'roughies' in this small field and this one looks most likely one of them to feature
we've picked this a few times recently and it has been finishing on well. Just needs a small margin of improvement to get the job done. Rails draw helps today

Went from maiden win to G3 last start and although never expected to show, actually wasn't too far off the winner. was good enough to win that maiden at only its second start and dropping back to R65 today, is right in it
