Verdict
Unfancied in the betting on his debut, OTTOMAN PRINCE returned the 80/1 winner over track and trip last month. He may well defy a penalty in this given the re-opposing Statu Of Liberty finished back in third and States Of Thunder disappointed last time having run well for second here before that. Gallimimus is related to four winners while Nails Murphy can include a Listed winner among his relatives.
