PEGGIE SUE returned a clear winner at Wolverhampton last time and a 6lb rise may not be enough to anchor her in this. Princess Way has been in better form over 7f recently but Falcao is preferred given he’s not been beaten far over today’s trip the last twice now. It was only a seller that Majorette finished second in at Leicester but she was up against higher rated horses than these while Red Invader won over the minimum trip here in March but reverted back to his more normal modest form last time.
