La Cucaracha looked one to keep on the right side of when scoring on her reappearance at Doncaster and again at Leopardstown last time and is taken to win her third race of the campaign at the main expense of Kind and Indian Maiden. The last mentioned disappointed at Newcastle last time but holds solid claims on earlier form at Haydock. Sir Michael Stoute's Regina and Richard Hannon's Castelletto look the pick of the three-year-olds and have to be respected but need to improve to trouble the selection. Hannon is also represented by Lucky Spin, who has claims on the form shown in the Chartwell Fillies' Stakes at Lingfield. Roger Charlton's sprinters are always worth a second look and his runner Kind has done little wrong this term but, along with Goldeva, she is held by La Cucaracha on Leopardstown running and the Barry Hills-trained filly gets the vote to come out on top again.
