        Verdict

        None of these inspire much confidence but THORNABY PRINCESS has won twice over track and trip this year and can effectively race of a lower mark than her most recent success with Anna Hesketh’s allowance taken into account. She needs to reverse latest running here with Bunce and See Vermont and the latter won here last month with Amber Crystal well beaten. Longroom drops back in trip after placing over 6f at Redcar and Caymus continues to slide down the weights.
