There was only a length between Aussie Blue and Mr Chocolate Drop on their running in the race won by the first mentioned of the duo over course and distance last month and there should not be a great deal between the pair again today but both may have to settle for minor honours behind FLY BY NELLY. Hugh Morrison's filly ran another decent race when chasing home Belle Park at Chepstow on soft ground last month and she can go one better today racing off a 3lb higher mark. Brian Baugh's Hilbre Court has been given a chance by the handicapper but is hard to back on recent form, while Yourgolftravel Com seems a shade high in the handicap and a better bet looks to be Fly By Nelly.
