Verdict

Imperial Act has been in winning form on the all-weather this year but has yet to score on Turf and the same comment applies to recent Kempton runner-up Silverturnstogold. But BROCKAGH CAILIN counted both Accomplice and Aye Aye Skipper among her victims when scoring over course and distance a fortnight ago and Stan Moore’s filly should make another bold bid in this. Princess Way found only one too good here last month and is preferred to Don't Cry About It, a runner-up at Brighton recently.
