Verdict
PRINCESS RAJJ couldn’t quite get to Marsa in a nursery here a couple of weeks ago but the winner has gone in again giving the form a boost and Jessica Harrington’s filly can go one better. Satin Snake finished close behind Marsa last week, with Pandemic Princess behind, though a line through the winner just favours the selection. Noel Meade’s horses have been going well so expect a better run from Charlie Luciano on his handicap debut but Yokkell’s improved run last time came over a mile.
