      Verdict

      Princess In Exile ran poorly in better company last time but has claims on her earlier form and Hellolini could figure on her third at Redcar last month, though she's been well beaten since. The others with experience make no appeal but newcomers Megamunch and Queen Flush are worth noting in the betting along with STRICTLY BALLROOM. The latter is a half-sister to a 5f winner and the Two-Year-Old Trophy entry may be good enough to score at the first time of asking.
