Verdict

Sacred Nuts made a very pleasing debut at Doncaster and can get the better of My Princess and Jane Jubilee . Michael Bell's juveniles are in good form at present and Sacred Nuts wasn't given a hard time when his chance had gone in that event at Town Moor won by Space Shuttle. He will no doubt benefit from that experience and can land this weaker event. A major threat to the selection will be My Princess who ran on well to finish a promising third behind Happy Event on her Windsor debut. Neville Callaghan's two-year-old's can always be relied on to improve for their first outing so My Princess must be in the shake up. There is a slight worry about the form of Mark Johnston's inmates but Jane Jubilee has shown enough in two outings to suggest she can win put up a bold showing here. Best of the rest could be Linda Perratt's Jerry's Girl, but for the winner we return to Sacred Nuts.
