SETTER'S PRINCESS put in a career best on the level on her last run and she should build on that to go one better in this tight handicap with Le Corvee and Touch Of Style heading the list of dangers. The pick was in contention in a couple of bumpers runs before turning his attentions to this sphere. He found just the one too good last time when well clear of the rest and off the same mark he has every chance. Le Corvee has to be considered after he returned from a break to get up by a neck at Linfield on his last run. Now that bit fitter he should improve enough off a revised mark to challenge for the leading honours. Touch Of Style has looked revived since joining his current yard running well in defeat on both starts this season. He was eye-catching in the finish last time and a similar run could suffice. Free Falling is another for this list after winning on his debut for this yard but Setter's Princess is unexposed and can kick on from that last run.
