      Verdict

      American Belle is very consistent and holds Liberalist on Leicester running but has looked in the handicapper’s grip the last twice. Last week’s Newmarket runner-up Gone won’t be far away as long as there isn’t a significant easing of conditions while Midsummer Music has been steadily improving but PRINCESS NIYLA had excuses on her handicap debut at Chester and remains relatively unexposed.
