In depth
Verdict
Swift Princess, Everymanforhimself and Ishetoo make the shortlist here, with Swift Princess given the nod. Ishetoo handles cut in the ground and has won over the trip. He is on a career high mark but his fair effort in the competitive Gosforth Park Cup suggests he can go well, though he needs to step up a little to be a leading player. Everymanforhimself is thoroughly consistent and is only 2lbs higher than when scoring narrowly last time at Beverley. He also goes well on this surface and looks sure to be in the shake up. Swift Princess won well on soft ground at Redcar in May-that was a very game success and she chased home an in form type recently. Receiving 9lbs from Everymanforhimself, SWIFT PRINCESS can make the most of the weight concession.
