Verdict

Hands Down gained her only success with a shock victory over the course and distance a year ago and though 2lb lower has a wide draw to overcome. Tai Sing Yeh had been in very good form at Dundalk before scoring over 5f at Navan and a 4lb rise isn't insurmountable though he's also drawn in double figures. Teddy Boy was a length behind him at Dundalk in March before scoring at Bellewstown though the vote goes to the maiden PRINCESS RAJ. She made a very encouraging comeback at the Curragh and looked like winning over 7f at Gowran when leading inside the final furlong but was headed close home. Maggie Thunder had dropped to a lowly mark when runner-up at Dundalk and she's 2lb lower back on Turf but Florence Thompson is 0-18.
