AJMAN PRINCESS, the only four-year-old in the line-up, wasn't far off losing her maiden tag in the Ribblesdale before finishing tailed off in the Irish Oaks. She should go on to much better things this campaign, starting with a victory here. The expensive Dubai Dunes had all of her four starts last season on the all-weather and only showed moderate form but Zehrah showed massive improvement on her opening run when just touched off at Chelmsford, where she didn't get the run of the race. Tapdancealltheway is the second foal of a mare who has already produced a winner over this trip and is one to note in the market.
