The first-time eyeshields appeared to give FREE SOLO a lift here last week when chasing home a bang in-form rival in Cousin Shay (winner again since) and he is taken to go one better back at 7f off the same mark. Fly To Glory has to be respected in his bid for a third win in a row, while I'm Spartacus and Little Keilee both make each-way appeal.
