Darcy's Price is a speculative selection in the Catterick finale. Jun Fan is being kept busy and, as he is thriving on his racing, he is forwarded as a likely danger, while Rann Na Cille is well weighted just now and also has to merit a second look in the betting. Others with claims on the pick of their efforts include: Moremeatmic, who is also on an attractive mark and, as he has been showing signs of a revival of late, he is also a worthy contender for a slice of the place money. Strensall has four previous course wins to his name and, as the veteran sprinter goes particularly well for Paul Hanagan, he cannot confidently be dismissed. However, Darcy's Pride showed a liking for this course on her penultimate start and, with a low draw in her favour, she is fancied to be the most difficult customer to deal with this afternoon.
