MICA MIKA arrives here in cracking form and can complete the hat-trick at the main expense of Dark Dune. The latter is a steady improver who went close over course and distance last time and is much respected on his return to the Westwood. Hi Ho Ron has had three quiet runs in maidens and now pitched into a nursery from a mark of 65 he could be a threat with the step up in trip seen as a positive. Little Miss Take is another newcomer to this sphere who should be monitored in the market, though she has a bit to prove after her Ayr run. Even so, Mica Mika acts on this ground and is going very much the right way, while this extra half furlong will also be a plus, so we will stick with him.
