Plenty with chances here but AURORA PRINCESS gets the nod after going up just 3lb for her victory at Clonmel. She’s from a stable in top form as is Flagged, just beaten by I Siyou Baby at Leopardstown when the winner was completing a hat-trick. The lightly-raced Shahaada has improved with every run and was impressive at Clonmel as was the selection’s stable companion My Holy Fox in a Curragh maiden. Umneyaat was sent to York after her Ballinrobe maiden victory and should find this more to her liking.
