Verdict

Princess Taylor has the form to win this at the expense of Milliegait and Sweet Cover. The selection has been knocking on the door of late and arguably ran a personabe best at Yarmouth when second to Dancing Jest last time out. With further improvement still to come she has to be given the nod. Milliegait broke her maiden tag around here last September and has put in some sound efforts of late to be worthy of mention. She was third behind Gull Wing at York last time out and another bold bid is expected. Sweet Cover was in the winners enclosure at York as well last time out and has improved with each effort. This is her stiffest task to date but any market moves should be noted. But for the winner we return to Princess Taylor.
