Cracking effort in defeat when close third (Greyville) upped to 2m two months ago in a Grade 3; has gained all his wins at a lower level; a course winner; an easier task than his previous race; warrants plenty of respect if building on last performance - return to this trip is a plus too.

Verdict

Love Is A Rose is respected, and Rapidash must be considered. However, PONTE PIETRA is strongly fancied to prevail. He comes here off the back of a fair effort last time.
