Charlie Appleby has found a good opportunity for VALIANT PRINCE to open his account. Gelded since placing at Kempton last month, he’s rated 92 and is impossible to oppose in this company. Arrange looks best of the rest despite a nine length defeat at Wolverhampton on her debut though the seasonal debutant Katyusha may have improved since last in action.
