Solstalla keeps plugging away but the going has turned against David Weston’s mare. Never Be Enough runs in her first handicap over timber after a first and a second at Perth but she is battle-hardened from the Flat. Song Of The Sky probably has place claims again but Henry Oliver appears to hold a strong hand. Like Makety and Sweet Adare, Another Theatre and DARLYN (NAP) are returning from a break but both were money-spinners for the yard last season and could improve again this term – the latter looks the pick of the weights on this occasion.
