AMJAN PRINCESS finished ahead of a subsequent winner when runner-up at Sandown on last month’s debut. Roger Varian’s filly has the advantage of a recent run over Dot Green, who has not raced since failing to figure in Listed company at Pontefract in October. Chelmsford third Rationality is a likely improver and preferred to the other Godolphin filly Skiffle while Abingdon may improve for today’s longer trip. Haddajah is a half-sister to a couple of winners and fellow newcomer Straw Hat is a sister to the smart stayer Telescope among others.
