        Verdict

        Ivor's Princess is usually thereabouts without winning and looks in need of some respite from the handicapper. By conrast, BLACK MINSTREL turned out to be well handicapped on his first start since 2012 when landing the odds at Lingfield. He looks the type to make up for lost time and can go in again. Lily Edge won a low grade handicap at Kempton last time and is upped in class while Eton Rambler recorded a double last autumn but was tailed off on his recent comeback at Chepstow.
