LUCKY ROYALE bids for a hat-trick off a 6lb higher mark today after a couple of Polytrack wins over shorter trips. There may be more to come trying 7f for the first time and she makes more appeal than Resplendent Alpha. The latter popped-up at Southwell on Wednesday and should be thereabouts again, however, while Fluctuation also has claims if taking his chance though was engaged to run at Southwell yesterday. Blueberry Fizz makes most appeal of the rest.
