1m
Going: Good to Firm (Good in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneROSE OF MALTA has an unenviable task being drawn wide in 17 but met trouble in-running at Leopardstown. She competes from the same mark as Leopardstown, when beaten five lengths, and while her draw is poor, today's rider claims 4lb and she remains a little unexposed. Cherub Rock, in 13, is a seven-race maiden but has useful handicap form. Her recent course run, over seven furlongs, was a good effort with the third-placed horse boosting the form by finishing second subsequently, and today's rival Barnhill Rose finishing fifth. Chimeric is a 23-race maiden who thrice finished second when beaten by narrow margins and while a reproduction of his latest course effort would give him every chance is drawn wide in 16. Shawaf ran well at Bellewstown but has won just once from 29 runs.
