Race preview

There is quite a bit of pace on show here and, with that in mind, it might be worth taking a chance on SOLAR SYSTEM. The seven-year-old enjoyed a fruitful winter last term but plateaued a little in the spring, so it's possible that 301 days off the track will have done him the world of good. He's still capable of better and this could set up perfectly for him. Both Barrels, Dalston Lad and Kyntara could all have a say but given that they might take each other on for the lead, Heather Honey may be a bigger threat.
