Verdict
Few make any appeal with AMAZON PRINCESS getting the vote having finished runner-up over track and trip on her handicap debut when finishing in front of Fact Or Fable. Lafontaine has won over a mile at Kempton but races over 7f for the first time while Vitesse Du Son may finish closer having failed to stay 1m2f last time. Abbey Wharf slides further down the weights and may prove best of the rest.
