        Verdict

        NOVA PRINCESSE followed up her maiden win with victory over track and trip and is worth sticking with. Marco Botti's filly is just preferred to Expect, a winner at Wolverhampton before finding the competition too hot in Listed company last month. Danfazi is another dropping back down in class and he makes more appeal than Porteous, though the latter is helped by an apprentice's 7lb claim, while Sunset Shore still looks too high in the weights judged on her latest start over 7f.
