Pavers Pride finished in front of Guardia Svizzera when runner-up at Beverley a week ago and gets a change of headgear. But BOUDICA BAY is preferred on the back of going close at Newcastle as Eric Alston’s mare won three times on trips to Musselburgh last year and is taken to confirm latest running with Marietta Robusti. She also has the beating of Popping Corks on collateral form while the veteran Economic Crisis is best on testing ground and Hard Solution won a seller here last term.
