Verdict
Poste Restante finally got off the mark when scoring at Yarmouth. But he's up 5lb for that and CHERRY PRINCESS is preferred. She's finished runner-up over 1m2f here on her last couple of starts but, given Stuart Williams' filly has won over 2m before, today's distance should not be a problem. Indian Scout has slipped down the handicap without making any noticable improvement and the same comment applies to Sir Tyto.
