    Verdict

    Alan King's Dolcetto could be of interest on her first outing in 697 days on her handicap debut off a mark of just 62 but a safer bet looks to be LYRA'S DAEMON, who can give weight away all round with the main danger rated as Ragdolliana. The last mentioned has slipped to a fair mark and ran well on her reappearance at Bath earlier this month when chasing home Lady Hestia and she has every chance of going one better off just a 2lb higher mark today. Any market support for Brendan Powell's Princess Flame would be of interest but she needs to improve on recent form to trouble the judge, while Setter's Princess is lightly raced but looks plenty high enough in the weights for what she has achieved so far. The David Evans-trained Amroth disappointed at Nottingham last time but has claims on earlier form so cannot be discounted but a better bet looks to be Lyra's Daemon. Willie Muir's filly showed improved form when a close third behind King's Masque at Ffos Las recently on her first run since December and she looks the pick of the eight runners on that evidence.
