A trick finale to solve in which we will give the tentative vote to Revue Princess with both Nigella and Toy Top worth noting. The selection is four pound higher for winning at Newcastle earlier on in the month. She had performed well below par on a couple of occasions prior to that win but she was clearly coming back to her best when winning last time. If she can recapture that form then she could prove difficult to beat. Nigella was at one time thought to be listed class but her form has since taken a nose dive. That said she looks to be running off what looks like a winnable mark so any moves in the market should be noted. Toy Top is another that could be well handicapped on her old form. She also looked to be coming back to herself when third of twelve at Newcastle last time out so is another to note, but for the winner we return Revue Princess.
