In depth
Verdict
OTTOMAN PRINCE is penalised for winning at Chelmsford and drops down in trip after going close again at the same track. But he’s rated 87 and still looks the one to beat in this company. Zeno struggled on soft going last time but ran better here on his debut and is preferred to Exorbitant while the newcomers Hanover Girl and Woody's Angel are both related to winners on the all-weather.
