Verdict
There is stamina in the pedigree of CHICHEN ITZA and the latter steps up in trip on her reappearance having finished a close-up third at Newcastle last autumn. Mimikyu is another upped in distance on her return to action having failed to figure on soft going on last year’s debut and stablemate Darmoiselles can only improve. Crystal Caves has the more recent outing though was well beaten at Ascot but the newcomer Queen Of Change is a half-sister to a couple of smart winners and could go well.
