Kaafy finished just in front of Hard Solution when runner-up at Ayr and can race off the same mark. But BOUDICA BAY has raced over course and distance twice now and won on both occasions including her latest start. She’s penalised for that but Eric Alston’s filly is clearly at her best here and gets the vote to go in again. Tease Maid has been thereabouts over 6f on the all-weather recently but Northern Society looks no nearer taking advantage of a slide down the weights and Economic Crisis has plenty to find with the selection.
