Verdict
Though third over 1m2f here in June, Princess T has turned in a couple of shockers on subsequent visits. A winner over a similar trip at Brighton two runs ago under Mollie Phillips, when Miss Sligo was unplaced, SEND IN THE CLOUDS was amateur-ridden back there on Sunday so shouldn’t be written off just yet. Billaki Mou is 0-12 and not getting much help from the handicapper. Susanbequick may be the pick of the remainder ahead of Broad Appeal.
