Verdict

A very interesting 3-y-o handicap. LIFE ON THE ROCKS was an eyecatcher on his handicap/yard debut recently and is selected to provide Richard Fahey with a third win in this race since 2016. Barn Owl has made a good start to his handicap career and rates an obvious threat, while it'll be interesting to see how much strength there is in the market behind returning pair Titian and March Law.
