Verdict

ROSE COTTON looked like one to keep on side when making a successful handicap debut over C&D in January and, with the promise of better to come, she shouldn't have too much trouble in dealing with this 6 lb higher mark. Samra Star gets the nod for forecast purposes, given that Little Miss India came up short off this mark on Saturday and Bella Bisbee is not certain to be suited by this step up in trip.
