RHOSCOLYN posted several good efforts from higher marks last season, and having confirmed himself as back in form by winning here earlier in the month, he's fancied to gain a second win of the campaign, with a quick turnaround a plausible excuse for an underwhelming effort last time. Star of Orion has found his groove again lately, though the highest draw presents a minor concern, whilst the progressive 3yo Ramazan and Thursday's York winner Ropey Guest also merit plenty of respect.
