Verdict

Percy's Princess was beaten here before scoring easily at Wolverhampton. But she's been raised a massive 16lb for that success and BUSHEL is preferred. The latter finished ahead of Layline when attempting to make all over 1m6f at the track last month and may prove hard to catch over this shorter tip. Kempton maiden winner Silver Mountain beat little on that occasion and prolific course winner Sofias Number One has done all his winning so far over a mile or shorter.
