    Verdict

    Boudica Bay didn’t really get the run of the race behind Bluella at Catterick and should be approaching peak fitness. He would have been expected to get a lot closer here, where he has run well in the past, had it not been for a terrible draw. ROCKLEY POINT was a winner at Catterick when last racing on Turf. He’s not earned the reward for his consistency on the all-weather over the winter and deserves a change of luck. Cool Spirit is looking well treated nowadays and was ahead of De Latour when second at Southwell last time but Due A Win has flattered to deceive.
