Sir Michael Stoute has a rare runner at this venue and Love Magic would be a rare winner here too given his last five three-year-old representatives at this track have all been beaten. Both Penny Rose and Curly Come Home make more appeal especially the latter who has the more recent form with a third at Newbury. Of Course Darling remains 11lb higher than her win at Wolverhampton early in the year despite a couple of poor recent efforts and ARDINGLY is preferred. She's fancied to improve in first-time headgear after disappointing at Leicester and follow in the footsteps of stablemate Sound Hearts who won last year's renewal.
