Verdict

Verdict

Justin Snaith trained ROLAND GARROS sets the standard having run a decent race in the Hollywoodbets Cape Guineas before franking the form with a gutsy win. If he takes to Hollywoodbets Scottsville he could open his local account in style. But the Mike and Mathew de Kock partnership also has a smart sort in the line up. I'M A FIREBALL won his penultimate start, setting a new course record over 1450m, and he could be hard to peg back from gate No 1. It's hard to look past these but KANAAL SKATER, who needed his last start, will enjoy a good gallop and could threaten.

Top Tip: Roland Garros (5)
Watch out for: I'm A Fireball (1)
