Verdict

It was fast going when Prancing Oscar won over further here back in May and Golconda Prince is not getting much respite from the handicapper, though his only success so far came on soft ground. Edgar Allan Poe finished closer in an amateurs' race at Carlisle last time while Jack Blane has placed here recently but has had 16 starts on Turf without a win. JO BINNEY will need to improve stepping back up in trip but the Irish filly may well do so making her handicap debut in a weak contest and she gets a token vote.
