Verdict

DESSERTOFLIFE is penalised for winning a Group 3 in Germany last year. But Mark Johnston’s filly has the form in the book and finished ahead of Play Gal and Mirsaalah when fourth in the Cheshire Oaks earlier this month. Like several of these, The Black Princess has some fancy entries, but she managed to get beaten when odds on for a handicap at Nottingham while Visage Blanc and the unbeaten Cajoled are both handicap winners and Ryan Moore rides the latter. Zaakhir made a winning start at Kempton in November but both Skiffle and September Stars were beaten in maiden races last time.
