Verdict
This looks less competitive than the previous division and El Principe could go well despite a 4lb rise for scoring at Carlisle in August. Edgar Allan Poe has struggled off today’s mark since notching-up a double during the summer so another chance goes to MEDICEAN BALLET, who posted her best effort in a handicap so far when runner-up at Kempton last week and Henry Candy’s filly gets the vote on that form. Harlequin Striker and Groor have both tumbled down the weights this season but continue to struggle.
