Verdict
Ambrose Princess and Callisto Moon are both fit form hurdling though neither has won on the Flat since 2010 but Kadouchski scored twice on the level last year including over C&D in March. This is tougher than the race Fade To Grey won at Wolverhampton last time while Rose Of Sarratt was also winning in a lower grade when successful at Redcar in November. VELOCE made a winning reappearance at Wolverhampton in March and though he's 5lb higher today, he looks to have got his act together at last and Ian William's charge is taken to follow-up.
