Verdict
SURREY PRINCESS wasn’t beaten far when third at Lingfield and is partnered by a leading amateur. Vertice posted one of her better efforts at Newcastle last time while Fen Tiger placed over track and trip on his penultimate start. Only The Brave has the past form to figure while Apache Jewel attempts today’s trip for the first time.
