Verdict
None of these have experience of the track but LEXI THE PRINCESS looks to have the best recent form and gets the nod on that basis. She won a maiden at Redcar last time with subsequent dual winner Jamesbo's Girl in second and the re-opposing Fly Fisher seven lengths further behind and Kevin Ryan's filly makes more appeal than Lord Avonbrook. The latter won a claimer at Beverley last month but collateral form gives him plenty to find with the selection while Vegas Belle is preferred to Northern Harbour on her recent debut second in heavy ground at Newcastle.
