Verdict

DARVEL won this race last year and comes here in consistent form. He therefore looks sure to give his running and that could prove good enough to get the better of Thiscouldbefun, who looks obviously well treated having escaped a penalty for a recent course success but did have the run of things that day, while Kimeko Glory and Prince Rasam could be threats, too.
