This has been a good race for three-year-olds so JUST DARCY looks the one to be on. Sir Michael Stoute's filly is out of a mare who won a Listed contest at this trip and also scored over 1m6f so she would have found 1m2f too short at Leicester. Fly Solo looked a certain future winner when runner-up over this trip at Catterick and was backed to do so at Haydock but found dropping down in distance and very fast ground against him. Caledonia has run in the top bumpers at Cheltenham and Aintree and produced a fine performance at the latter course. Lucy Alexander should make this a test of stamina and he has to be a threat.
