This looks wide-open and it may be worth chancing DARKEST DAY, who hasn't cut much ice in a couple of runs this season but it's still early days and he's now 10 lb lower than when finishing third over C&D in February. Legal Ok has found just one too good on both previous visits here and he merits respect, but Penny Poet makes her handicap bow in this sphere off a feasible mark and is feared most.
