Verdict

There is very little strength in depth in this race so that should enable PRINCE KHURRAM to follow-up his Bangor victory under a penalty for a yard that is in a real purple patch at the moment. Dangers are hard to find but Rob Robin and Chicksgrove Sprite could well show a little improvement and fill out the places here.
