Verdict
Bollin Neil has his favoured ground and is back on a winning mark but recent efforts have left much to be desired. Baileys Derbyday has also become disappointing but represents last year’s winning yard. In The Breeze was second to an in-form rival last time at Newmarket and is only a pound higher but three-year-olds have won three of the last four renewals and QOYA has travelled up from Newmarket with leading claims having followed up a win at Kempton with a short-head second at Haydock. She’s entering new territory regards going and trip but should be up to the task. Melburnian has finished second twice since joining Rebecca Menzies and can place again.
