Verdict

DARCY'S ROCK got off the mark in taking style at Chepstow and is fancied to make light of a 7 lb rise in a handicap where most arrive with a question mark against them. C&D winner Homemade Andrea is next on the list, although it would come as no surprise to see Rita's Wish take a step forward on her handicap bow and she needs considering too.

  1. DARCY'S ROCK
  2. HOMEMADE ANDREA (IRE)
  3. RITA'S WISH
