Verdict

Kunte Kinteh gets the vote here with Puissant Princess and Six Of Hearts rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Miss Taboo and although having a penalty for that win this is a poor race and he is taken to defy the handicapper. Puissant Princess rates the main danger on her latest second behind Dansil In Distress. If she improves again here she will not be far away. Six Of Hearts hails from the in-form Jamie Osborne yard and although disappointing on his last two runs it would be no surprise if he improved for the switch to this surface. Mabaahej ran with promise in three maidens and could have got in lightly despite top weight and he should be closely watched in the market. Of the others, Astroangel and Good Effect ran well last time and are others with place claims but in a race where the market will be very informative for the winner we return to Kunte Kinteh
