POETIC PRINCESS couldn't cope in much better company at Ascot on her handicap bow. That run can be safely ignored and she's better judged on her earlier defeat of Bix in a maiden over C&D with the third horse 10 lengths behind. Jo Hughes' filly makes more appeal than Poetic Verse, third in soft ground at Salisbury last time and handicap debutante Panama Cat. The remainder all have some catching up to do on their first start on Fibresand if they're to get involved.
