Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Regional Rock has a year away from the track to overcome but he sets the clear standard in this novice stakes, having shown genuine ability as a two-year-old and already demonstrated he can win. He handles different ground and conditions well and is effective at six furlongs. Sand Sea and Dark Angel Light are the most likely to test him if he is fully tuned after his absence. Regional Rock is our selection.
