Verdict
Princely has yet to win a handicap but finished in front of The Lacemaker when runner-up over track and trip last month and the latter went on to finish second back here. Zulu Zander had the measure of Secretfact when a close-up fourth at Chepstow but disappointed last time but the veteran Waseem Faris slides further down the weights and My Style is fitted with blinkers after a poor effort at Salisbury. STORM AT DAWN has the most scope of these having improved with every run and she gets the vote with more to come now handicapping.
