Pacquita kept on well to hold off favourite COLUMBIAN ROULETTE over 1m at Southwell two weeks ago but you would expect Charlie Hills' colt to reverse the form over this extra-quarter mile and on better terms. He gets the nod ahead of Wolverhampton specialist Aramadyh and Starlight Princess, who showed she stayed the trip here last time. Frederic Chopin was only beaten half-a-length over course last month and can get involved but Big Kenny has gone up again in the weights lately, despite not winning.
